I have developed an application for backup and restore on IOS and ANDROID! for backup i am just looping all files and uploading to server directly and to restore, doing the same to retrieve the data's back to phone.

But

1.now i have to compress the files and upload it to server,
2.also decompress it and restore it back to mobile
3.most important this must be done by cross platform method.. (i.e i have to take a backup from iPhone and restore it to an android phone.)

Is there any way out there related answers or suggestion's are welcome.

thank you

  • This question has a link-only answer that may be deleted. It points to [this article](http://www.jondev.net/articles/Zipping_Files_with_Android_%28Programmatically%29) though it appears to be suffering a database outage at present. – halfer May 12 '19 at 21:32

On android you can use the java.util.zip (try Zipping with android) to zip your files and upload to the server and on IOS you can use the ZipFile class (look at this question for an example) to do exactly the same. Zip is a standard so it will work both ways.
