Is there an application or method with like ADB or something that can easily make backups of my apps to transfer to another phone? i dont care about configs or having to login again, but reinstalling everything is a major bother.

Bonus points if it applies my home screen and QS-Tile Layouts. But thats just a nice to have.

Old Phone: Google Pixel 6a (Lineage OS, Magisk root)

New Phone: Google Pixel 8 Pro (Lineage OS, Magisk root)

It’s not open source, but Swift Backup can backup your app data with adb access via shizuku to a folder on your device that you can copy to another device

*Not all of the app data, only the app data in the internal user-accessible storage. The data in the /data partition will not be backed up. Most app settings are stored in /data.

If you have root it can back up the /data too, but not many phones support root access these days.
