  2. By selecting the devices you want to back up contacts from on the device list page and clicking on the backup icon in the actions menu (allowing backups to be generated for two or more devices at the same time):

  3. When you go to a Group's details page and click the Contact Backup icon located in the top actions menu, a backup will be created for every device associated with that Group.
