Restoring a backup replaces this device's archive data with the backup's contents. App settings stay unchanged. * The readable ZIP is not encrypted and cannot restore the archive. Shloop creates it on this device without uploading it to the web. * Some screens may show ads. When a rewarded ad is available, completing it and receiving its reward removes Shloop's banner ads, including note-detail banners, on this device for 8 hours from the reward time. * Shloop is for personal record-keeping, not professional appraisal or certification. * Developer email: predefy.dev@gmail.com
