xDrip » Features » Backup » Restore database
To restore a database, you must place it in the xDrip folder located in the phone’s internal storage. If the folder does not already exist, you can create it manually.
The database filename follows this format:
exportYYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.zip
Here, YYYY
represents the year, MM
the month, DD
the day, HH
the hours, MM
the minutes, and SS
the seconds.
Important Note: xDrip does not import a database; it restores a database. The restore function replaces the existing database with the one being restored. This means the current database will be entirely deleted and replaced by the new one.
To restore a database:
1- Tap on Import/Export Features
→ Restore Database
.
2- Read the warning message carefully. If you are certain you want to proceed, tap OK.
3- Select the appropriate file by tapping on its name to initiate the restoration process.
