HOWTO: Backup and restore eWallet GO!

[Archived] – Last Updated:

eWallet GO! supports manual backup and restore on some platforms, and automatic synchronization on others.

eWallet GO! can backup and restore data from Google Documents and Dropbox.com. The backup format is identical for any version of eWallet GO!, so you can backup and restore data to transfer it between devices and share it with the desktop version of eWallet GO! You will need either a Google account or a Dropbox account. Click here for more information on the online services supported by eWallet GO!
