Unfortunately, it seems that many HTC phones hide this setting. If “Privacy” doesn’t appear in your settings then use this trick to get there.

  • Settings > Search > Searchable items
  • Enable “Settings”
  • Goto the “Home” screen
  • Search for “Privacy”
  • Check “Back up my settings”

It’s just too bad there’s no easy way to backup your apps manually, without resorting to an app on the market…
