+title: Export FAQ
+description: Frequently asked questions about keeping extra backups of your data
+---
+
+# Export
+
+## Can I backup my data in a local drive outside Ente?
+
+Yes! You can use our CLI tool or our desktop app to set up exports of your data
+in a local drive or NAS of your choice. This way, you can use Ente in your day
+to day use, but will have an additional guarantee that a copy of your original
+photos and videos are always available in normal directories and files.
+
+* You can use [Ente's CLI](https://github.com/ente-io/ente/tree/main/cli#export)
+  to export your data in a cron job to a location of your choice. The exports
+  are incremental, and will also gracefully handle interruptions.
+
+* Similarly, you can use Ente's [desktop app](https://ente.io/download/desktop)
+  to export your data to a folder of your choice. The desktop app also supports
+  "continuous" exports, where it will automatically export new items in the
+  background without you needing to run any other cron jobs. See
+  [migration/export](/photos/migration/export/) for more details.
