I just did a factory reset on my Android phone (LG G4). I skipped the "Restore apps" menu during the initial setup. I can't find this menu item anywhere on my phone. Is it still possible to restore apps after I left initial setup screen?

That looks like the initial Setup Wizard. Possibly related/duplicate: Trigger Setup Wizard at next boot using command-line – Andrew T. Oct 12 '21 at 04:24

Have you tried this solution?
- From any home screen, tap Apps.
- Tap Settings.
- If using Tab view, tap Menu > List view.
- Scroll to DEVICE and then tap Backup & reset.
- Under LG BACKUP, tap Restore from backup.
- Locate and tap the backup.
- Tap Start to begin the restore. This may take several minutes.
- After the restore completes, tap Done.
- The phone reboots to complete the restore.

It lists "Google Drive" as a backup storage but it found no backups. – papaiatis Sep 20 '17 at 13:21

Where the backup was stored? SD card or GDrive? It allows you to restore from different sources except gdrive? – TechSech Sep 20 '17 at 14:47

I did not back up anything manually. The initial setup screen gives you the option to restore apps. I skipped this process and this is what I'd like to run now. – papaiatis Sep 22 '17 at 07:53

Are you sure that a backup was made? By the way, it may be possible that you can perform the app restore only during the initial configuration, like in iOS when using Move to iOS. – TechSech Sep 23 '17 at 12:02
