Opening settings, reading
"Safe contacts
Daily backup from your contacts"
Thinking "oh nice, automatic backups already set up, sweet."
After clicking it
"Automatic backup: deactivated
Last backup: never"
A friend deleted his contacts and i remembered there is this settings. This was actually my thought process and was already happy we can restore his contacts. Turns out - no.
When automatic backups are not set up write in the settings itself something like
"Safe contacts
Not set up yet"
After done a manual backup is done write
"Safe contacts
Manual backup dd-mm-yyyy"
And after the automatic backup is set up
"Safe contacts
Daily backup from your contacts"

Is there anything needed for the issue? Its really misleading to have it this way and it would just be some text changes...
@tobiasKaminsky
is it possible to reopen the issue? I still think this is a problem.
@tobiasKaminsky can you comment on this matter? :)

If anything needed, i am happy to provide more information. Other than that, this post is just this issue does not cloce because i think its a small but important change.
@jancborchardt do you have an idea how to name this better?
Same with davx5, we do not indicate if it is enabled/set up, so I think we do not need it here, but should make more clear that initial set up is required.
@natrius as the function itself is working, it is not a bug, but something we can and should enhance on a UI/UX level.
(changing the label also prevents bot to close it)
I鈥檇 say it鈥檚 simply a wording fix of the initial label to:
Back up contacts
Set up automatic backup
I suggested UI changes in my initial post as well. Sorry about the "bug" tag, you are correct, @tobiasKaminsky
Backups not set up
Back up contacts
Not set up yet
After done a manual backup is done write
Back up contacts
Manual backup dd-mm-yyyy
And after the automatic backup is set up
Back up contacts
Daily backup from your contacts
EDIT: Thanks @jancborchardt for pointing that out, changed it. Thought its always "Backup" :)
Good suggestions @natrius! One nitpick: "Back up" as in the verb are 2 words. :) Or we write "Contacts backup".
