How do I back up the WhatsApp backup that is on Google Drive?
If I go to WhatsApp - Settings - Chats - Chat backup, it tells me the Google account that my backup is at and the size.
And if I go to https://drive.google.com/drive/backups , then I can see the backup there.
Google Drive doesn't even tell me the size of the backup! But it tells me the date or time of it which verifies with what the WhatsApp app shows.
How can I copy it off?
I tried Google Takeout picking just Google Drive. But that just gives a 9MB file. So it didn't include it.
