“How do I delete a logbook?”
Go to Settings → Manage/create logbooks, select the logbook and delete it. If it is active or still synced, switch logbooks or turn off sync first.
- #logbook
- #delete
“Can I enter a passage manually in the app afterwards?”

“How do I install the beta version on my Android device?”
Via the Google Play Store beta programme: under “Join the beta”, tap “Join”. The beta should be fully functional — reports of any problems are very welcome.
- #beta
“How can I copy or duplicate an entire logbook?”
Export the whole database as SQLite and import it again on the same device: the logbook then exists twice and you can trim the copy however you like.
- #export
- #import
- #sqlite
“Can I edit the app’s database, for example to combine all the logbooks from the past three years into one?”
Yes — your data lives in a single SQLite database that you can export, edit on your computer and import back. That’s how you can merge 100+ logbooks into one, for example.
- #export
- #import
- #sqlite
- #database
