[FEATURE REQUEST] Create auto-backups and set default save location #163

Open b16r05 opened 3 years ago

Hello!

Thank you for the Android App.

I created a backup (using third party app, not your cloud); then, updated my tablet and now I cannot restore the backup.

At the time of creating the backup, I believe I had jstock running as well as I had a few active widgets. I am trying to browse the backup data files, to find my watchlists. Could you please provide any information that might help?

I see /assets/database.zip which contains a list of all the stocks from different countries. I see *.db files... but I think they contain the schema, not my watchlists. I do not see any .csv files. Are they stored in a different format such as xml/JSON, etc?

Thanks!

Finally, gave up trying to restoring backup : ( I have several lists (over 10) and one had over 400 stocks : (

Question: I know that there is an option to backup and restore data, within the app (too late in my case). But, is it possible to build functionality to set a default location to save backup AND to have the app periodically create backups, ... say, weekly, monthly, etc.?
