Basic services: Mobile Backup

Mobile Backup

TELUS mobile backup is a simple and effective way to secure your contact information. You use it to synchronize your contacts and save them to a remote online location.

With a monthly subscription, you can back up your contacts automatically or manually right from your phone. In case of a lost or stolen phone, you can lock your contact list, so it stays private. You can also browse, edit, and print your contacts online, and any changes you make are updated on your phone.

Use Mobile backup to transfer your contact list during a handset upgrade. With a one-time purchase, you can transfer your contact list from your old phone, secure it in an online location, and restore your contact list onto your new phone.
