Sign out without losing data
Last updated 8 days ago
Signing out does more than end your session: it clears your LapperSnapper data from the phone. That's deliberate — accounts and phones get shared around a paddock, and signing out must leave nothing of yours behind.
What happens
- Data that's backed up to the cloud is safe — it comes back when you sign in again, on any phone.
- Data that is not backed up is permanently erased from the device.
The app protects you
If you have unsynced data, the sign-out dialog warns you exactly what isn't backed up yet — sessions not yet uploaded, deletions not yet applied — and offers to Sync first. Let it finish, then sign out with everything safe.
Before you sign out
- Open Settings and check the sync status card shows everything backed up.
- If you're on Free (no cloud backup), export anything you care about first: share the original session files off the phone (see Import a session file — the same sharing works in reverse).
- Then sign out.
If you're stepping away from a shared phone and unsure — don't sign out; just close the app.
