Backup & restore
From the app’s English Help & Guide · Reference release 1.0.19
Overview
Back up all your Metered data — plans, activities, check-ins, outcomes, events, templates, and settings — to a single file. Restore on a new device or after reinstalling. Find it in More › Data › Backup & Restore. Settings include notification choices, optional check-in movement context, Morning Signal preferences, pressure alert thresholds, and other tuning controls.
Automatic backups: when iCloud Sync is on, Metered turns on Automatic Backups for you. Metered writes a fresh backup to your iCloud Drive once a day, either in the background or on launch. The last 7 backups are kept and older ones pruned automatically.
If iCloud Drive gets stuck: if Metered says it cannot write to its iCloud Drive folder, open Settings › your Apple Account › iCloud › Drive. Make sure Sync this iPhone is on and Metered is allowed to use iCloud Drive. If everything is on but backups still fail, turn Sync this iPhone off and back on, then reopen Metered.
Restore safety: turn off iCloud Sync and restart Metered before restoring. Restore locally and check the result before deciding whether to turn sync back on. Metered also takes a rollback snapshot; if anything goes wrong mid-restore, that snapshot is automatically re-applied.
Backups don’t include Apple Health samples (those stay in HealthKit) or your Metered+ purchase (that restores via the App Store). A check-in with movement context includes only its saved coarse comparison band.
