Top Backup Shopify Apps Ranked by Position
Filey ‑ Files Backup & Export holds the top spot for backup with 28.5% market share, but the gap to challengers is closing, 19.7pp ahead of TinyBackup ‑ Backups & restore (8.8%). BackupMaster Backups sits at #3 with 2.0% share, rounding out the top tier.

Worth noting: the top-ranked app and the highest-share app aren't the same here — App Store rank and our market share metric (computed from review counts and other factors) move on independent dynamics, so cross-checking both views matters in this category.
