Backup and Restore of Airmail Data

Are you using Airmail, a popular email client for Apple devices? Do you know how to backup your data in case something goes wrong or you break your device? In this article, we will discuss the importance of backing up your Airmail data and how to restore it if needed.

Types of Accounts

Airmail offers two types of accounts: Local and POP3. The Local account saves local only data, which is corruptible if something goes wrong. However, you can easily add these accounts back to Airmail using iCloud and download all emails again from the servers. It's equally important to backup your Airmail data if you're relying on any local only data.

Backup Options

Airmail saves its data on your device's local disk. If you're using Google, iCloud, IMAP, or Exchange accounts along with iCloud to save your app settings, it's not necessary to backup your data. But, without a backup, your subscription will not sync. Airmail Pro requires iCloud drive login for purchase and syncing between devices.

Restore Purchase

If you've purchased Airmail Pro on Mac, you can restore the purchase on iOS devices or other MacOS devices to sync the subscription. To do this, go to Airmail settings > Go Pro > Restore purchase on your iOS device or Preferences > Airmail pro > Restore purchase on your MacOS device.

Ensure iCloud Drive is Enabled

To ensure your subscription syncs successfully across devices, make sure iCloud drive is enabled in your iOS settings > Mobile Data. Open the iOS settings > Apple ID > iCloud > Airmail > enable it.

Single Subscription for All Devices

Airmail Pro offers a single subscription that will sync with all your Apple devices using the same Apple ID and iCloud drive account on each device. The subscription costs $2.99 per month, with a 3-day free trial. Previous users who purchased the app can still use it without paying for the subscription if they don't want.

Free Subscription

Airmail Pro is free for all users who purchased Airmail 3 after January 1st, 2019. With the introduction of the subscription model in Airmail 4, the one-time purchase option has been removed.

In conclusion, backing up and restoring your Airmail data is crucial to ensure you don't lose any important emails or settings. By following these simple steps, you can keep your Airmail data safe and synced across all your Apple devices.
