Backup options
Create the backup file
You may want to keep all your data (your training patterns, statistics, reminders and settings) on your SD card to secure them, or just to be more opened to new experiments with your custom trainings.
Also you can create the backup file on your Google Drive so you can have your data safe, plus this way you can sync your data through all of your devices. The file will be saved to your Google Drive once you go online. Also note there is "Transfer file only via Wi-Fi" option in Google drive, so if you have this switch on in your Google Drive settings, the backup file won't be saved to your Drive until you turn Wi-Fi on.
- Choose "Create backup" item in "Backup" section.
- Find the folder needed on your SD card or on Google Drive (note what Google account you are using) and tap on "Create" button. You will see the file name in a toast, typically "prana_breath_backup_yyyy-MM-dd__hh_mm.db", but you can rename it if necessary.
- You will see the date and time of the latest backup on top of this section.
- Google Drive backup is available for Guru version.
