5. Install Zoolz viewer on your smart phone to stream music, watch videos and view your backed up photos.

6. Use the regular expressions and the file filtering rules to get more control over the files\folders that Zoolz will backup.

8. Select the suitable Internet connection type that you want Zoolz to use to upload your files (Wi-Fi, WLAN or 3G).

9. Add large files like databases and email clients data files (Like Outlook pst files) to the Block Level extensions so that Zoolz uploads only the changes within the files instead of uploading the entire file on each backup.
