Description

Actual behaviour

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.

Expected behaviour

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"

Contributor guide

Research direction
Locate the relevant string resources in the Android app, likely in res/values/strings.xml or similar. Identify the strings for the 'Safe contacts' section and the backup status messages. Update the strings to reflect the actual state (not set up, manual backup date, daily backup active) as described in the issue. Use the provided screenshots for reference to understand the current UI layout.
