The easiest way would be to sync your account with another device. This will 
effectively encrypt your account data with your password and a temporary nip 
and sync it over the DHT to your second device.

Once your account is synced to your second device, you should be safe to 
uninstall Ring on your Android device (effectively wiping your account on that 
device), reinstall and then redo the (re)sync your account back in.

Otherwise, there are ways to backup the application data using ADB or some 
backup apps (which typically require root), but these options are not as simple 
as the device syncing mechanism built in Ring.
