Export & Backup
How to export your data and back up the app.

You can export your data in different formats depending on the data type. From the trip list and refueling list, or from the backup section:
- CSV — To open in Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers. You can choose which fields to include
- PDF — Formatted report with charts and statistics, ideal for sharing
- Backup — To export a complete backup
