Backups

Post by axelagb »

Hello,
I’m on Iphone, and I just downloaded the app a few days ago. I encounter an issue when I save a game : at first no problem I backup the game when I want to stop playing, and I can leave the app and resume playing later by clicking on the backup. But if I stop to play for more than one day, all the games I’ve saved disappear. The backups aren’t here anymore and I can’t resume playing I have to start again from the beginning. Why is that ?
Thanks for your help

Very sorry to hear. Not yet.
Let me ask for some hints.

Can you see the saves in Files app, Wesnoth/saves folder? BTW, an awkward workaround for this problem is to download saves in Files.

Is there anything unusual with your device? Is it running out of storage or iCloud space?
Is there some other piece of software that uses extensive amount of storage?
Any other way you use iCloud in?

Hi, this is suddenly happening to me as well. Plenty of storage, iPad 4 with most current update. Any suggestions?

I have found a problem in iCloud synchronization code. It is most likely caused by it.
A belated update is on the way.
