Do you have a Samsung account friend? My Samsung phones have been destroyed in the past and even on a free plan everything has virtually been backed up. If you're unsure, trying logging onto Samsung. Any major mobile retailers can check for this as well.
I do have a Samsung account, but it was my impression that it's not a full backup of the phone. E.g. only apps from Galaxy store is backed up, so i would have to download all apps again from Google play store
My experience in the past friend ( and I don't want to condone this just incase, this is simply my experience) has been that when transferring to a new phone, virtually everything has been returned including pins, fingerprints and the actual app data themselves EXCLUDING the Secure Folder on Samsung, I think that's exclusively physical storage vs. Cloud.
Hope you find a solution soon! :D
I'll have to try that out, but I would still have to make a separate backup of everything - Just in case... I wouldn't trust this process until I have tried it out.
