No, I'm just talking about not overwriting the backup already the next time you close or start the app. So the number of backups to keep. Just let MSP save a configurable amount of the database (like mobilesheets_auto_backup_1.db and so on mobilesheets_auto_backup_2.db) before overwriting the oldest again if the configured amount of backups . Nothing more. Probably just a job of renaming the older backup before saving. Personally I don't need an automatic clean or delete. But since not all users will work with exposed database or with the folders on Windows there should be something from the GUI I guess.
If you don't think it would be of general use (not only for the catastrophic data loss which would have happened to me if I hadn't copied and backupped manually, but also maybe for returning to a previous version for some reason) then don't implement it. But I know it from several editors or office programs where multiple copies of documents are saved so I thought of this here, too.
