Hello I'm looking for help transferring all my game data to a new phone without using a pc

#

Without a PC is harder to do

#

You can export all the files using the in game file manager

#

and then from there you can import them back the same way

#

But if a PC is around that would really be the best way to do it

#

So I can export everything using say google drive, then just import it back?

snow cobalt
#

I mean in theory

#

Use the in game file manger to get them out of the game

#

And then move them to Google Drive

crystal wagon
#

How would I do it with a pc?

snow cobalt
#

You'd plug your phone into the PC

#

Move all the files into the PC

crystal wagon
#

Sorry I've never done this before

snow cobalt
#

And then move them onto the new phone

#

And no worries!

TheoTown files are located under such directories:

  • Windows: C:\Users(insert username)\TheoTown or %USERPROFILE%\TheoTown
  • Linux: ~/TheoTown
  • MacOS: /user/TheoTown
  • Android: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files
    By default you should be in /storage/emulated/0/. Uninstalling the game on Android will delete all files, unless you decide to keep the files when prompted by uninstaller. (android 11 onwards restricts access to external storage for apps, so if the files cannot be accessed this way, opt for the in-build manager explained below)
  • ios: Search "TheoTown" in the file manager app

If you cannot access game files through these directories, game has an in-built file manager for mobile devices which is accessible from the region view menu.

You can find your plugin, music, region and city files there as well as logs for debugging purposes.

With PC you'd be able to find this Andriod file location

#

Otherwise you'd have to use the in game file manager

crystal wagon
#

Ok so I wouldn't need to export anything from the game? The pc can just access the files?

snow cobalt
#

On PC the move is much easier yeah

#

You will still have to move things

crystal wagon
#

Ok I may wait until I get home to do it

snow cobalt
#

Just with less work or chance for error

#

That is what I would suggest!

crystal wagon
#

Ok thank you so much

snow cobalt
#

No worries if you need any more help just ping me and I will get to it when I can!
