Is there a way to export my database, e.g. to text, excel, xml? I am on Android only, version 1.2.4, build 65.

That I know of the only export is a plug-in for the main program on the PC. With that I know you can export to CSV (and possibly more).

Export is built-in, File -> Export Profile Database...

Dear bbbbb, would you please take a look at the title of the forum??? Perhaps you'll realize that your answer to this thread is wrong and unnecessary (as usual).

Thank you.

If I get this straight, I have spent dollars (even though it was on sale) on an Android app which let me save my videos, but in order to get it in a format so that I can handle the information any other way, I have to spend more dollars to buy the PC version (which I actually feel no other need to)?

Well as far as I know the app never claimed to have an export, so you got what was advertised.

You could upload to the online-list and try to get a title list from there, but that would be quite a PITA because of ugly HTML.

You're dumb, and everybody knows.

That was not the question. The question was if there is an export function for the Android version so your post does not help him.

Another alternative is to make a request for an option Import/Export or similar of CSV, XML, etc. in the request section of the android forums.
Then patiently wait.

Profound remarks. I'm still thinking if a metadiscussion is the answer. And whether a metadiscussion helps him more, or the correction that he would not need a plug-in because XML export is built-in.
