If Google is able to introduce this then why can't Apple?
>Starting in Android Pie, devices can take advantage of a new capability where backed-up application data can only be decrypted by a key that is randomly generated at the client. This decryption key is encrypted using the user's lockscreen PIN/pattern/passcode, which isn’t known by Google.
>By design, this means that no one (including Google) can access a user's backed-up application data without specifically knowing their passcode.
