Backup & Restore
IMPORTANT
Legado does not have an account system. You cannot restore your data simply by logging into a bookSource website.
You must configure a WebDAV service to restore your data from the cloud.
TIP
Any cloud drive that supports WebDAV can be used to back up your data.
Set Up Backup Info
⚙️ Set Up Backup Info
1. Go to Backup & Restore
Home Screen - Mine (我的) - Settings (设置) - Backup & Restore (备份与恢复)
2. Enter WebDAV Backup Info
In the WebDAV settings, fill in the server address, account, and app password, then save.
3. WebDAV Account Info Reminder
- WebDAV Server Address: Webdav 服务器地址
- WebDAV Account: (Your registered email) Webdav 账号
- WebDAV Password: (The app password you just generated) Webdav 密码
CAUTION
Please make sure to enter YOUR OWN WebDAV account info.
Otherwise, it will cause data leakage (and you will be the one responsible for it).
📂 Set Up Backup Folder
Click Backup Path (备份路径) to set your backup folder
Click Backup (备份), and the following pop-up will appear
Click OK (确定). You can choose either option here
Navigate to the folder where you want to save your books, then click Confirm (确认)
💾 Automatic Backup
TIP
Once WebDAV backup is configured, the app will automatically back up every time you exit.
NOTE
Only exiting using the "Back" button will trigger the automatic backup. Closing the app directly from the task manager will not back it up.
Backups created on the same day will overwrite each other.
Backups from different dates will be saved separately.
