“Restore from Cloud” — what it does

iOSAndroid

Restore from Cloud brings your voyage data — voyages and track history (track points) — back onto this phone. It does not restore, repair, or re-pair your GOAT device.

Warning: This is a common mix-up. "Restore from Cloud" is about your voyage history, not your device. It won't bring a device back online, re-pair it, or recover its settings. For device problems, use setup or factory reset instead.

Steps

  1. Open Settings → Restore from Cloud (under "Cloud backup & restore", when signed in).
  2. The app downloads your voyages and track points, merges them with what's already on this phone (voyages with the same ID aren't duplicated), and recalculates your stats locally.

Note: Your boat config is backed up automatically and returns when you sign in — Restore from Cloud is specifically for voyage and track data.

Note: Map photos are not included. They never leave the phone they were taken on, so a restore on a new phone won't bring them across.
