Backup works with sync,low memory can affect it

isn't dis okay or it need more space

Manually upload them pictures, videos and other necessary files, delete the ones you don't need in phone storage, turn on sync (at this point, you have enough space) then backup your app data, sms and other stuff.

Well....it's better if you free up the memory till that low memory notification stops then try the backup again.

Do you have a phone master app, try using it to deep clean junk files

There should be an 'upload to drive' option while sharing or doing it in the app

.....it seems you are not ready to backup to your drive,look,am only trying to help.

From the screenshot you sent, there's a low memory management indicator,if you should check your notification shade, you'll see an icon showing low memory, it's circular.
....come on ,make things easy for your self

Yap.....from the. Picture,you see that low storage management?
Clear some space until it removes,why? because it would slow down or eventually stop most background processes including sync which in turn affects backup.ome major problems that affect backuplow storage,it may look enough to you,but as long as the system is indicating a low memory management,then it's not yet enough

Other things that affect backup are poor network,corrupt data, outdated goghle drive
But let's guess is low storage,cleanup some space until that low memory management removes and if the problem persist,then we'll know where to look

go to your settings, click on apps and locate the app that has used the most storage, clear data, that should give you some space
