Sigh. It doesn't save your home screen layout? That's a major oversight. As far as app data, the apps that save their data tend to be from smaller devs ime. For example board express, some financial and health apps, etc. I have to double check to see if they save settings. As far as how this might hook into wp8's back up and restore, I'm not sure. on wp7, you have to go into each app, enter your sjydrive credentials and restore, which can be quite tedious.
Nope, major bummer. I recommend everyone take screenshots of their layout before they restore (Power button + Windows Home button) which is what I did. I haven't checked all my apps yet, but so far no data for my apps was saved.
