Settings and backups

The app's settings menu: themes and dark mode, the style of the map buttons, the interface language — and backups of favorites and history: when they are created automatically, where they are stored and how to get places back from them.

Where are the settings in the app?

The gear in the bottom-right corner of the map, opposite the account button on the left. The menu has four sections: “Appearance”, “Language”, “Backups” and “About”.

Can I change how the map buttons look?

Yes. “Appearance” has three styles: “Solid” — opaque with a shadow, “Theme color” — filled with the color of the selected theme, and “Glass” — translucent. Like themes, it is a Premium feature.

How do backups of favorites and history work?

The app makes them by itself: a few seconds after any change to the lists, a backup is saved. Separate backups are saved before clearing, before restoring and before replacing the phone's data with data from the cloud — any of these actions can be undone.

How do I restore places from a backup?

Settings → “Backups” → tap the backup you need and confirm “Yes, restore”. Favorites and history are replaced with the backup's contents, and the current lists are first saved automatically as a “Before restore” backup.

How do I delete backups?

One — with the trash icon in its row, all at once — with the “Delete all” button at the top of the section. Backups are deleted both on the phone and in the cloud and cannot be recovered, so the app asks for confirmation.
