[PavanSudarsanam]

Can we backup google accounts aswell? And what about secure folder

[5uv0]

No it does not automatically back up. You can back it up manually.

Secure Folder > Settings > Secure Folder backup

Check this one

[5uv0]

Yes, secure folder back up is not completed. Because it's privacy issue. You can back up secure folder manually and back up your phone to samsung cloud , gdrive or smart switch wherever you can.
