When you need to restore To Do items from your backup file, select “Import Data” from the main menu and select or enter the location of the file to import. If you are importing the data you previously saved to the app’s private storage area, you will need to enter the same name that you gave the exported file.
If you are importing data from a file in shared storage, select “File from shared storage”. On Android 7 (Nougat) or newer, you can browse through the available storage folders to find the ‘.xml’ file with your saved To Do lists.
When you select the document you will return to the app’s Import screen.
If you are using Android 6 (Marshmallow) or older, selecting “File from shared storage” will change the folder to the device’s default ‘Downloads’ directory. You can change the location by typing it in, but you will need to know in advance where the file is located; the app doesn’t provide a file browser.
Next, select the type of import you wish to perform. The choices are:
If you have set a password for your private records, you do not need to enter it to back up your private data; the application saves the encrypted records. You will need that password when you need to import those private records back in to the application. This may be different than your current password. Important! Do not forget the password you had when you made the backup file. Without thet password, it will be practically impossible to recover your private records; however you may still restore all of your non-private records by un-checking “Include Private” on the Import form.
If you have not entered your password in the application settings when you attempt to import a backup file, the import form will warn you that any private records imported will not be encrypted. You may either cancel the operation to go enter your password and then try again, or go ahead and import the data and then re-encrypt the private records later. To encrypt them afterward, either open up and save each private record individually, or choose “Set Password” from the main menu and change the password. (You can change it to the same password if you wish.)
