A practical walkthrough
Restore records on another phone
Use a compatible backup file to restore your records, then check the accounts before continuing work.
English guide reviewed . Button wording can vary by app language and version.
Before you begin
Have the backup file and its password if encrypted. Back up any records already on the destination phone before starting.
Follow these steps
Install the official app
Install Zawid Accounts from the official store and open Backup and restore on the destination phone.
Select the backup
Choose Restore backup and select the .zawid file through Android. Older encrypted backups require their original password.
Read the confirmation
Review the restoration warning before continuing: existing local data may be replaced. Do not interrupt the operation.
Verify the result
Check several accounts, recent transactions, currencies and totals. Make a new backup after confirming the result.
A worked example
Compare a recent customer statement on both phones before recording new payments on the restored phone.
Avoid common mistakes
- Signing in to a subscription account does not restore local accounting records.
- Keep the original backup until you have verified the restore; do not uninstall the old app first.
