Back up station data

Back up station data

Create a Weather Fusion .wfdb backup before deleting or repairing a station database, or when moving observations to another device. The backup contains the local database package for one station.

  1. Select the station to back up.
  2. On iPhone or iPad, open Settings › Manage Data and choose Back Up Database…. On Mac, choose File › Back Up Database….
  3. Select a destination and keep the .wfdb extension on the saved package.

Keep an independent copy until the backup has been restored and verified. Provider credentials and device-specific authorization might need to be configured separately on another device.

To import the package, see Restore station data.
