Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a processor, a communication circuit that establishes a connection between external storage and a device, and a memory operatively connected to the processor and storing instructions. When executed by the processor, the instructions may cause the electronic device to execute an application that provides a backup function, identify first data in response to a first user input to the application, identify a backup history stored in the memory, identify a data type of the first data in response to a fact that the at least one backup history is present, generate all of the first data or a part of the first data, which is generated after a point in time according to a latest backup history, as backup data based on the data type, and store the generated backup data in the external storage.
