Adalo does not provide automatic backups that you can directly access. So, if your account were compromised, your app data & configurations could potentially be lost or misused. Best Practice: Regularly export your data (via collections) and keep a manual copy of critical app logic or UI components
you should secure your account today by using a strong, unique password, enabling two-factor authentication (2FA) via your Google or Apple login if possible.
If you are handling sensitive info (user payments, identities) consider using third-party services like Firebase, Xano, or Airtable. That way, even if your Adalo account is affected, your core user data stays safe elsewhere.
TL;DR: Yes, if your account is hacked and you have not taken precautions, you could lose access to your entire app. But with the right backup & security habits, you can minimize the risk significantly.
Open app screens & take clear screenshots of logic setup (actions, conditions, database triggers).
Or manually write out your workflows in a doc (“When user clicks Button C → Check condition → Navigate to Y → Create record in Collection Z”).
Export
Go to Database > Export CSV
Save in Google Drive, Dropbox
Design Layouts (Save)
Use screenshots or tools like Loom to record a walkthrough of your app’s key screens
External Integrations (make Notes)
Document API keys, Zapier setups & webhook configurations in a secure place.
At Impero IT Services, we once helped a client who lost access to their no-code app (built in Adalo) due to an expired email address. Fortunately, during development, we had created a backup archive with UI screenshots, database exports, and key logic flows stored securely.
If your Adalo account is hacked and access is lost, you haven’t necessarily lost everything. First, contact Adalo support immediately—they may help recover your account if you verify ownership. Adalo doesn’t automatically back up your app versions, but if you’ve exported your app (e.g., for Android), that APK or build can serve as a partial reference, though not for editing in Adalo. To prevent total loss, regularly back up your app’s data and design manually or clone the app within Adalo. Enable strong security measures (like 2FA) to reduce the risk of losing access entirely.
@LuckyTravel I would advise to contact Adalo directly to get the information about the possible options for you.
There were some possibilities to recover deleted app before (this should be done really quick), but I am not aware if these policies are still in place and what is the possible timeframe. The best people to ask are in Adalo Right Desk.
Otherwise - you’ve received some good advices about making backups of your data.
