Sync & Backup

Cachly can sync your data across your devices and back it up to the cloud, so a new phone or a reinstall doesn’t mean starting over.

iCloud sync

With iCloud sync enabled, Cachly keeps your data in step across the iPhone and iPad signed into the same Apple ID — so lists, settings and more follow you from device to device.

Backups & restore

Cachly can create backups of your data to the cloud. The Backups screen lists your backups so you can restore one — invaluable when moving to a new device or recovering after a reinstall. You can browse the underlying iCloud documents from the iCloud files screen.

Backing up the database file

For a full manual copy, the database file Cachly.sqlite holds all your offline lists and pending logs (but not settings). Grab it two ways:

• Files app: Browse › On My iPhone › Cachly, long-press Cachly.sqlite and Share (e.g. AirDrop to a computer).
• Finder / iTunes File Sharing: connect the device, select it, choose File Sharing › Cachly, select Cachly.sqlite and Save.

To restore, add your saved Cachly.sqlite back via File Sharing (Add), confirming the overwrite.

Dropbox & Google Drive

Cachly also integrates with Dropbox and Google Drive, letting you move files (such as GPX) to and from those services for import/export workflows. See Import & Export.
