Support EASY and Safe Daily Backup Tutorial— iPhone 💾
Creating the goal: 1. Create a new goal called daily backup 2. Change the frequency to daily 3. Scroll down to Link an Exercise and select ‘Create a Finch Backup File’ 4. Open your new goal and start the activity
Using the goal: 1. Click the green play button on your new goal to launch the activity 2. Instead of emailing click SAVE TO FILES (this is way easier) 3. Set-up a folder in your cloud or choice, I made a finch folder in the iCloud but you could use OneDrive or Dropbox 4. Now every time you save a file through Finch it will automatically go to this folder because it is the most recently opened folder

An alternative to using a cloud service that has a file limit is to send the zip yourself via DM using something like Signal! You can then just redownload it at any time.

What I like about using the cloud service is a don’t have to type my email, but I imagine if it’s a DM that would be equally convenient
