Upgrade to full version

Post by wolfy » 11 Aug 2015 01:33

I was just going to go paid/full, when I saw that this requires uninstalling and reinstalling from the playstore.
Now, I have already two working flows and specifically collected a lot of cell IDs for certain areas, and I don't want to do this all over again.

Will the uninstall preserve the existing stuff?

If not - is it sufficient to backup the two xml-files in the AM folder?

And either way, this should definitely be mentioned explicitly in the popup that tells the user about “installing and reinstalling in Google Play“!

Hi,

The flows and widgets should be preserved when upgrading to the full version. Creating a backup of the two files is a good idea nevertheless.
Good idea to mention this in the upgrade dialog. I'll change it in the next update.

Thanks & Regards,
Martin

Hi Martin, I did not receive your answer in time, but (as I did in fact make a backup by hand) just risked it, and everything thankfully WAS preserved. Great :)

But it was not in vain - that way anyone searching for this question in the forum will hopefully find this answer :)
