Google Drive is Google's cloud storage that comes free with a Gmail account. All one needs to do is have an email account with Google to create a personal cloud drive to create a backup and access data from anywhere. Find out how easy the process can be done by following the below-mentioned steps.

Step 1: While the backup of all data on Huawei phone can be created with a single click on Google drive, the contacts need to get saved separately.
