Backing up Your Data

You should always have a backup of your library, especially before updating the app, migrating or doing a database repair. This ensures that no data loss is possible.

Creating a Backup

  1. Go to Settings > Backups.
  2. Press "New Backup" and choose where you want to save the backup.

    We recommend that you save it to your Files app.

Crashing During the Backup Process

If the app crashed when you made the backup that means that your database has been corrupted, go to settings and press and hold "Attempt Database Repair".

Importing a Backup

  • Go to your previously saved backup and press the share icon.
  • Select the Paperback app.
  • Select "Yes" on the "Restore Backup" pop-up.
