  • Backup
  • Tools & Utilities
Backuparr creates scheduled config and database backups for self-hosted media management apps such as Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr, Bazarr, Jellyfin, Plex, Emby, and Seerr, sending them to any enabled destination: local storage, Google Drive, OneDrive, or Dropbox. All apps, destinations, schedules, retention rules, and restores are configured in a web UI rather than environment variables. Most apps require only a server URL and API key; Jellyfin, Emby, Plex, and Seerr additionally need their media folder mounted into the container.

Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.
