These devices are not hard drives -- there is no backup for them, nor will there likely be! You will just have to keep notes on the stuff you want to backup.
True this have no harddrive and never will but they are a cloud device a nackup could be saved if Amazon were to add the feature.
The cool thing with cloud based devices is the ease at which upgrades can be maded and rolled our.
@UKMedia in the Aleca app click on feed back and explain what happened and suggest the need for a cloud backup option.Even if only one backup is allowed per account that woild save users hours of reprograming.
I've used the cloud back ip of the econtrol app seversl times. So this isnt beyond what Amazon can do.
