I guess it would if the repair shops respected it. I am using my insurance to get the screen fixed so I have no idea where it ends up. They just have a big disclaimer which mentions that you should make a backup because the phone will most likely be factory reset.

I need to change the screen on my phone and unfortunately the repair shop has to wipe the phone - don't ask why, something related to personal data etc.

I am looking for a hassle free way of basically cloning my entire phone and restore it once i get my phone back.

My normal backup procedure is to store photos in Google photos and backup other things using Samsung backup, but it would be nice to have something similar to how iphones can be restored from a backup in icloud where the entire phone is "cloned".
