How to create a backup:
When you first open App Manager you will be taken to the "Downloaded" tab which will show you all user apps that were downloaded to your internal memory or SD card. To backup a single app, simply locate the app and press the check box to the right of the desired app. A bar at the bottom of the screen will appear with several options. Select "Backup." To backup without user data, select "Backup apk"; to backup with user data, select "Backup apk+data."
To backup all downloaded apps, select the check box at the top right corner while in the Downloaded tab. Press "select all" and you'll notice that all apps will be checked off. Select backup at the bottom to begin the backup process.
Apps may show up in several different colors:
• RED = System app
• YELLOW = Private app (cannot be backed up without root access)
• WHITE = Regular app
How to restore a backup:
First press menu and select Restore to get to the app restore menu. Much like the backup process, you will first select an app by selecting the check box. The option to restore the app will appear in the bottom bar. You will then be given several options:
• Manually Restore Apps (Non-Root) - restore selected apps one by one without user data. This is the only option for restores in the free version of App Manager.
• Auto Restore Apps (Root) - automatically restore all selected apps without user data.
• Auto Restore Apps+Data (Root) - automatically restore all selected apps with user data.
You can restore all backups by selecting the check mark at the top right of the restore menu and choosing "select all."
There are also several icons in the restore menu that will tell you more about your backups.
• Happy face: app is backed up and currently installed
• Exclamation mark: app is backed up and currently uninstalled
• Clock: the backup is older than the one installed
• Plus sign: the backup is newer than the one installed
• Blue folder with a star: the backup has user data
Using Batch Mode
Batch mode will allow you to backup/restore many apps at the same time. To navigate to the batch menu, press menu and select Batch from the options given. You will first be taken to the batch backup screen. Here you will find several options for backing up user apps, system apps, etc.
By swiping to the side you are able to batch restore, uninstall, delete backups, move apps, freeze/defrost, manipulate data, and change market links.
Task Manager
The task manager allows you to view apps that are currently running and groups them into several different categories depending on the color of the app name.
Task Manager App Colors:
• BLUE = Service
• CYAN = Foreground
• YELLOW = Background
• GREEN = Visible
• RED = System
• WHITE = Empty
When you select an app, you can choose to launch the app, exclude it from the list, kill the app, manage the app (clear data and cache), view details, or uninstall.

Titanium Backup people have still not responded to my request. My biggest issue is migrating Call Logs/Contacts/SMS/MMS from one ROM to another. Titanium has the "Migrate System Data" option but it does not always work. They also updated today allowing the DB's to be converted. You might want to take a look. Thanks for a cool app!
