What is a .NOVABACKUP file?

A .NOVABACKUP file is a type of file specifically used by Nova Launcher, which is an application designed to replace the default home screen on Android devices. This file contains all the necessary information to recreate or restore a user's home screen layout in Nova Launcher. This includes the arrangement of app icons, widgets, and other settings that define how the home screen looks and functions.

To create a .NOVABACKUP file, a user needs to open Nova Launcher on their Android device, navigate to the app's settings menu, and follow the path: Nova Settings → Backup and Import → Backup. This process saves the current home screen setup into a .NOVABACKUP file.

If you need to open or use a .NOVABACKUP file, you must do so through the Nova Launcher app on an Android device. There are no other programs on different platforms (like Windows or iOS) that can open this type of file because it is specifically designed for use with Nova Launcher on Android. To use the file, simply import it back into Nova Launcher using the same menu path but selecting 'Restore' instead of 'Backup'. This will apply all the saved settings and layouts from the .NOVABACKUP file to your current home screen in Nova Launcher.
