<![CDATA[Backups]]>I am noticing that Apps are getting backup and stored far more frequently then cloudron backups in total.

How do I limit the backups frequency per app and retention policies per app

I'd like to limit app backups to 3 total for the apps i choose.

Maybe create a feature request post about it? 🙂

This is is making my s3 storage more expensive than i want.

@privsec you could disable automatic updates and skip backing up when you update manually, which I definitely wouldn't recommend. Did you create those backups manually? You could try the regular backup view and hit the "Cleanup Backups" button.

Ill try the cleanup

@privsec if an app gets updated, an extra backup is created, see https://docs.cloudron.io/updates/#app-updates for reference, they stick around for three weeks.

I have backups that are 4 weeks old

Also, this can cause a high expense with a service like Wasabi.
Can we alter this at all?
