Backup & Restore

Timesheet History provides two ways to back up your data locally on your device storage.

1. Manual Backups

You can create a snapshot of your data at any time.

• How to create: Go to Backup & Export > Tap the + button > Give your backup a name.
• Where are they stored? These files are saved in the Backup folder within the app's internal directory on your phone.
• File Format: Manual backups are stored as .thb files (Timesheet History Backup).

2. Scheduled Backups (Premium)

Let the app handle the work for you.

• Setup: Go to Backup & Export > Settings (Gear icon) > Enable Daily Backup.
• Retention: You can choose how many historical backups to keep (e.g., keep the last 5 days). The app will automatically delete older ones to save space.
• Condition: Scheduled backups typically run once every 24 hours when the device is charging to prevent battery drain.

3. Restoring Data

Restoring a backup will overwrite all current data in the app.

• How to restore: Long-press any file in the backup list and select Restore.
• Importing Files: If you have a .thb file from another device, use the Import button to move it into the app's backup list first.
