Backups and using another device
PanProfit saves your recipes on your device, in your browser or in the installed app. There is no account to lose and nothing to log into, so a backup file is how you keep them safe and move them to another device.
Download a backup
- Go to Settings and find Backup & Restore.
- Tap Download backup. A file with all your recipes, ingredients, prices and settings is saved to your device, usually in Downloads.
- Keep a copy somewhere safe: your email, Google Drive, iCloud.
PanProfit reminds you when you haven't downloaded a backup in a while.
If the browser's data is cleared, or the phone is lost or changed, the recipes saved on it are gone. On iPhone, Safari can also clear a site's data after some days without using it; the app installed on your Home Screen does not. A recent backup brings everything back.
Restore a backup
- On a new device (or after installing the app): on PanProfit's first screen, tap Restore a backup and choose the file.
- Anywhere else: go to Settings, Backup & Restore, tap Restore backup and choose the file.
Restoring replaces the recipes and ingredients on that device with the ones in the file, so download a backup of the device first if it has anything you want to keep.
Moving to another device
- On the device you've been using, download a backup.
- Send the file to the new device (email it to yourself, or save it to your cloud storage).
- On the new device, open PanProfit and restore it.
The two devices don't stay in sync: from then on, keep working on one of them, and repeat these steps if you switch again.
If the backup has more than 10 recipes for sale, PanProfit lets you choose which 10 to restore. All your preparations and ingredients come back, and the file still holds everything.
