Seedvault backup schedule?

Is there a way to actually set WHEN seedvault backs up the phone? Mine does it every Tuesday in the middle of the day and causes issues for me because it seemingly closes apps out when it goes to back them up. I've had apps shut down on me while I'm using them, which is super annoying. I know we can set the frequency of backups, but it would be significantly better to be able to set it to run in the middle of the night when I'm not actually using the phone, not during prime time when I'm using it the most.

Anybody? It's getting super annoying to catch my VPN being turned off hours later, and I can't block connections without it due to split tunneling needed for certain apps. Anyone know how to just stop it from running altogether?

MEGAbyter I believe the reason this happens is because Seedvault is force stopping the app so it can properly make a backup of it. One solution is to uncheck and not include the VPN app from the Seedvault backup.

If you backup to USB, another option is to turn airplane mode on (and WiFi off), perform the backup, and then turn off airplane mode and go about your business.
