A: Main screen → Menu button → Export Data。 It will save the data as AndAlarm.zip and you can e-mail it. Then you can import the AndAlarm.zip。

Q: What's the 00 00 00 after 'Remind Before' in Add activity ?
A: If you want to alarm at the specified time, leave the 00 00 00 unchanged. If you input 10 5 0, it will alarm at 10 and 5 minutes before the specified time. The time (0) is not alarmed, you would not want to alarm at the start of meeting.

Q: What's 'By GPS' ?
A: Activated By GPS. Specify the area with Google map when you add a new entry. When the alarm time is up, it will check if the location is within the area. If it matches, it will ring. If there is no match, it will check continuously for one hour. You'd better test it before you actually use it because GPS signal may be too weak. This function is useful for commuters to avoid oversleeping on a bus.
