Automatic backups

  • Set an interval and Auto Backup creates a backup in the background while you play — no interruptions.
  • Optional backup right when you exit a world, so you always have a fresh save waiting.
  • Old backups are pruned automatically once you hit your configured limit — favorites are never touched.

Manual backups, anywhere

  • One click from the Backups screen, in-game or from the menu.
  • Reach it from the main menu, the Select World screen, the pause menu while playing, or a configurable keybind — your pick.

Favorites

  • Star a backup to protect it from both automatic cleanup and manual deletion. It's yours until you say otherwise.

Safe restores

  • Restoring never overwrites your world. It creates a separate copy ( backup ), so going back in time carries zero risk to your current save.

Built to feel vanilla

  • Custom icons and screens styled to match Minecraft's own UI — tabs, buttons, and all.
  • A quiet on-screen notification when a backup completes (toggleable).
