Hi,

why not using whagodri? Do you have issues? Because I know no real second option here, because actually whapa uses an way to get those backups which is the only way to get it.

Tell us what issues you are facing and I am pretty sure we can help you more on this.

I have a problem; when I type "info about account," it gets stuck on "metadata":

Requesting access to Google...
Granted.
Requesting authentication for Google Drive...
Granted.
[i] Backup name : clients/wa/backups/***********
'metadata'

And when I try to download the files, I get "Error 'files'":

[i] Searching...

Requesting access to Google...
Granted.
Requesting authentication for Google Drive...
Granted.
[e] Error 'files'

Does anyone know what the problem is?
i´m using the lattest version

Hello, I tried to use this version but it's giving an error. I actually don't even know how to do it directly, like entering Gmail, the password and account ID, but it doesn't work. The account doesn't have 2-step verification.
