I had auto backup on in settings and while updating to the latest i had a persistent crash and it seems i lost everything.

I don't see any files in downloads, what are the backups called? Do i have to do a manual export\backup before auto works?
Is there any confirmation that a auto backup had been created?

There should be a line in setting showing the last backup location and time.
I wish i had thought to check sooner how it worked.

I again tried to import a database. V 1.18
I found massive. Db (which was not there 10 mins ago)but when i picked it the screen flickered and i was on the same screen but i could not pick it again.
Now there are two files massive and massive(1).
I think something is wrong or i did something wrong like maybe the two options are to close to each other and i thought i was importing but maybe i was exporting..

I tried again and i definitely picked export
I picked the first db file
And the screen switched back to settings quickly then back to the file picker.
So it don't know what is going on

Auto backup should when enabled let you pick the folder to backup to. To be honest I find it hard to work with Kotlin (native android stuff) so it might not have been working. I'll do some more testing on it

As a part of this ticket I'll include a button to decide where we want backups to go (auto backup still needs to open the dialog if not specified).
