You may or may not know that if you have an Android device, some of your settings as well as app and game data can be automatically backed up by the system to Google Drive. This makes it easy to switch from one phone to the next, with restore being possible after you've gone through the initial setup on your new handset. Similarly, certain apps like WhatsApp allow you to backup everything (the content of your chats, as well as photos, videos, audio, and documents) to Google Drive too. But maybe at some point you've wondered where all those backups are and why you can't see them inside...
