Hi there,
I’d like to transfer my /e/ account from my current phone (Moto G7 plus) to my son’s phone (Samsung Galaxy S9) and to transfer my son’s /e/ account on my phone.
Both phone use the latest version of /e/Os available.
What is the ‘best’/easiest way to proceed in order not to loose data?
Thank’s in advance,

PS: I suppose that the recent “Service outage” deeply condition backup/restore strategy based on cloud. Right?
depends, did you use murena for files + notes much? or just (contacts, calendar, tasks, passwords, email)? notes is kind of inbetween being also file-based at the murena+nextcloud end.
If you setup your account on the new phone, you should get the data in parantheses - you can do this multiple times, it’s not exclusive to a device.
To get the file-based data though you’d have to import from a local copy and make sure to disable file sync and re-enabled carefully when murenas storage comes back online, as the internal state could have issues to reconcile.
Thank you for your answer.
I don’t use files and notes syncronization: there are just few files in the cloud from a previouse setting. Actually the only files I have on phone are pictures which I generarly backup manually.

Still, apart for files (pictures). I’d like to be assured about what I’ll get on setting my current account on a ‘new’ /e/Os phone. Does anybody knows?
I’m a little bit concerned because when I access to my web murena.io account I see almost nothing and a banner saying it a reduced functionality version an something MAY be not not working!
there’s not alot of magic to it - basically you’ll get the entries you currently see on the web account (contacts, calendar).
