# Backing up data or switching devices

To import/export/backup your data: In the app, open settings, import/export.

The supported methods are:

* Server sync - sync your portfolio data to our cloud servers and between all your devices that are signed in with the same account
  * You can enable 'auto-sync' if you have a premium subscription. Otherwise you can tap on the 'sync' button to begin a sync.
  * Sync will perform a safe merge. It uploads to the server any local data that's not present on the server, and download from the server and any data not present on your phone.
    * If you want to use the cloud data as the "master" data and do not want to keep your local data, you can enable the 'Delete local data before syncing' checkbox
* Google Drive / external storage / SD Card - backup a CSV file
* Email - send CSV to email

On the new phone / app, go to app settings, import/export, and import your data.

Note: After you import if you don't see your portfolio, go to the 'portfolio overview' screen and make sure you are looking at the correct portfolio.

We don't automatically make backups of your portfolio data to the server for privacy reasons, but you can enable auto sync via the server sync screen.
