Back up and restore workspaces
Kwantflow keeps local restore points for the active workspace on the device.
Use them when you want recovery without exporting and managing backup files manually.
What backups are for
Backups help when:
- you want a manual restore point before a risky cleanup or setup change
- you need to recover after a bad local change
- an update caused a problem and you want to return to a known earlier state
Automatic backups
Kwantflow keeps automatic restore points on a weekly cadence.
These happen in the background while the workspace is active and healthy enough to protect.
Manual backups
Use Back Up Now in Settings when you want an immediate restore point before changing something important.
Examples:
- importing a large setup spreadsheet
- reorganising reusable setup data
- testing a major local cleanup
Restore points
The Backups area shows saved restore points with:
- when the snapshot was created
- why it was created
- the app version at the time
Review the restore point before applying it.
What happens when you restore
Restoring a backup replaces the current local workspace data on that device with the selected restore point.
Kwantflow then restarts so the restored state can reopen cleanly.
Before restoring
Check that:
- you selected the correct restore point
- you understand later local changes will be replaced
- the workspace name and timing match what you expect
Delete old backups
You can delete old restore points from the same Backups area when you no longer need them.
Deleting a restore point removes that recovery option from the device.
Best practice
Create a manual backup before major local changes, then use restore only when you are confident the selected point is the one you want.
Next: Use Settings.
