Restore a Backup Premium

A restore replaces your current Text Snippets, Folders, Action Keywords, Clipboard, Statistics, and Settings with the ones in the backup. It also removes empty Folders. To keep your current data, create a backup first.

1. Open the Settings tab.
2. Tap Backup and restore.
3. Tap Restore from backup.
4. Read the warning, then tap Continue.
5. In Android's folder picker, open the dated folder of the backup you want, not the main backup folder.
6. Allow Typing Hero to use that folder.

Typing Hero shows Restore completed when it finishes.

If the restore fails, or Typing Hero asks Replace existing data?, see An Import, Export, Backup, or Restore Fails.

Move to a new phone

1. On the old phone, create a backup.
2. Copy the backup's dated folder to the new phone, for example with a cloud storage app or a computer.
3. On the new phone, install Typing Hero from Google Play.
4. Complete setup.
5. Check that Premium is active. See Restore Premium after Reinstalling or Changing Phones.
6. Restore the backup with the steps above.
7. Choose a Backup folder again, so new backups work. A restore doesn't bring that choice over. Your backup schedule does come back, and it starts once you choose the folder.
