Summary	0011811: [wip] Missing end-user docs: wallet backup/restore (Android + iOS)
Description	Came in via support@; HD#0049. docs.taler.net has no end-user page for wallet backup/restore. Android: Settings -> Developer mode -> Export/Import database (JSON; also raw SQLite). iOS: Settings -> More -> Backup/Restore (Taler-* files). Please document both for end users (and whether Android export should leave Developer mode).

Christian Grothoff 2026-09-23 23:26 manager ~0030029	I'm not sure we should do this, maybe respond to the user that the current backup feature is experimental and that once we support nice & usable backups we'll document the process? If we document, then Ivan's upcoming backup via the sync service!
