Sync and Backup
Overview
OMN4 stores your personal data on the device first, then uses cloud sync to keep supported data in step across your devices.
Use this section when you want to understand what sync covers, how to check sync, how to keep an extra backup, or what to do on a new device.
Main Ideas
- What Syncs explains which personal data is synced to the cloud.
- Manual Sync explains how to check sync when another device needs to catch up.
- Backup explains sync plus GPX export as a practical backup strategy.
- Restore explains what to do after installing OMN4 on a new or reset device.
The Important Limit
Your OMN4 account can unlock your subscribed maps on supported devices, but offline map downloads are managed per device.
That means signing in can restore supported personal data, but it will not automatically copy every downloaded map file to a phone, tablet, or desktop. Download the maps you need on each device before you rely on them away from a connection.
