Upgrading to 4.2? Nothing to migrate.

4.2 is an update to the same app — same package, same Play listing, same data. Just update from Google Play. On first launch, your existing data upgrades automatically.

Before you update

The one thing not to do.

Do not uninstall the old app before updating. Updating in place keeps your local data; uninstalling can remove it.

If you are switching phones at the same time, email support first. Android cloud backup and device transfer exclude the app’s health database and photos.
Step 1

Update from Google Play

Update as usual. Do not uninstall the old app first.

Step 2

Open 4.2

On first launch, your existing local data upgrades automatically.

Step 3

Keep using your Pro

Existing Pro / ad-free purchases are recognized. No action needed.

What stays

Your record, your Pro, your app.

The upgrade is designed to be boring: nothing to move, nothing to re-buy, nothing to re-learn.

  • Weight history and goals.
  • Body measurements and progress photos.
  • Existing Pro / ad-free purchase.
  • Same package and same Play listing.
  • No new account.

What may need a hand

If you are changing phones.

The app is local-first. For a new phone, the transfer is a deliberate, supported process — not an automatic cloud sync.

Email support for a manual transfer

Send an email to support@weightasst.com with the subject “Data transfer”. We will help you export from the old device/app and import into 4.2.

If something looks wrong

Tell us before you work around it.

An upgrade can surface an edge case. If something looks missing or wrong, email support with the details and we will investigate.

  • Your device model and Android version.
  • The app version (4.2).
  • What you expected to see and what happened.
  • A screenshot if possible.
Honest limits

We cannot recover what is not there.

If you uninstalled the app, wiped the device, or lost a backup, we may not be able to recover the data. We will tell you what is possible instead of promising a miracle.

If you still have the old app installed, update in place and contact us before uninstalling anything.

Upgrade questions.

Is 4.2 a new app?
No. It is a major upgrade to Weight Track Assistant — same package, same Play listing, same data. There is no new app to install and no account to create.
Do I need to export or import my data?
For a normal in-place update, no. On first launch, the app upgrades your existing local data automatically. Export/import is only needed if you are moving to a different phone.
Does my Pro purchase still work?
Yes. Existing Pro / ad-free purchases continue to work. No action is needed. If ads still appear, email support@weightasst.com.
What if I already uninstalled the old app?
Email support with your old device, new device, and what data you had. We will help with what is available. We cannot recover data that is no longer on a device or in a backup you saved.
Is cloud sync part of 4.2?
No. 4.2 is local-first. For a device change, email support for a manual export and import.
