Share or back up your wordbooks as a file

SnapVerbo can turn a wordbook — or everything you’ve saved — into a single file. Send it to a friend, a student or a teacher, or keep it as your own backup and move it to a new phone. The other person opens it with SnapVerbo’s Import from file.

This is different from the PDF, Anki and Quizlet exports, which are for reading or studying in other apps. This file is for SnapVerbo itself.

Export one wordbook

  1. Open the Wordbooks screen and tap the wordbook.
  2. Tap Export wordbook.
  3. Choose what goes in the file:
    • Share with someone — words, translations, notes and definitions. Leaves out pictures, your review schedule, place tags and Favorites.
    • Back up — everything, pictures included. The file is larger.
  4. If the file will be big, SnapVerbo says so first. Tap Continue to go ahead, or Go back.
  5. The share sheet opens with the file attached. Send it by message or email, or save it to Files or Drive.

Only that wordbook’s words travel with it, not the rest of your vocabulary.

Export everything

For a full backup or a move to a new phone:

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Under Backup & transfer, tap Export everything.

You get one file with every word, picture and wordbook, including your review progress.

Before you send it

  • Share is the safer choice for other people. It keeps your pictures, review history and location tags to yourself.
  • A Back up file contains your own photos and notes. Treat it like any private file.
  • Large files can be too big for chat and email apps. Saving to Drive or Files and sharing a link works better.
  • The file is an ordinary .zip. Inside, the words are plain text you can read on a computer, with a short readme explaining what it is.
