Create and Schedule Backups Premium
On this page
A backup keeps a copy of your data and settings, so you can restore them after reinstalling Typing Hero or move them to another phone.
A backup saves your Text Snippets, Folders, Action Keywords, Clipboard, Statistics, and Settings in a folder you choose. Empty Folders aren't saved. Typing Hero does not upload backups.
All backup controls are in the Settings tab, under Backup and restore.
Choose a backup folder
- Tap Backup folder.
- In Android's folder picker, choose or create a folder.
- Allow Typing Hero to use it.
Backup interval and Create backup stay dimmed until you choose a folder.
Create a backup now
Tap Create backup. Typing Hero shows Backup created when it finishes.
Each backup goes into its own dated folder inside the backup folder.
Back up on a schedule
- Tap Backup interval.
- Choose Every day, Every week, Every 2 weeks, or Every 4 weeks.
Scheduled backups run at about 9 AM local time. Android may run them a little earlier or later.
Automatic backup status shows the last and next automatic backup.
If an automatic backup can't finish, Typing Hero tries again one interval later. If it lost access to the Backup folder, automatic backups stop until you choose the folder again.
To stop the schedule, choose Never.
To bring a backup back, see Restore a Backup.
If a backup fails, see An Import, Export, Backup, or Restore Fails.
