Hello.

Following #207, and when testing #621, I realised that the Backup and Restore feature added recently, doesn't do anything with the bookmarks and the timestamps.

One of the things of the original topic was that, but It doesn't seem that is implemented yet.

Thanks in advance!

Ok, i see. The backup feature creates two files, one called com.github.andreyasadchy.xtra_preferences.xml and other one called database (no extension). I thought database was for something else, as It hasn't a descriptive name (unlike the preferences one). I also made the backup in the SDCard root that have some files created for the system itself and I thought that was another one.

I just test it and you need to select both two files to restore the preferences AND database and it restored everything.

So it works, my only concern is that database file is not descriptive enough to see that is part of the backup, even there is not mention that you have two files and you need to restore both (It doesn't do that automatically when you pick one) and It is a bit counter-intuitive.
Even better could be to have both files tar, zipped or something like that as something like Xtra_backup_20250211.zip and restore picking only that.

Thanks for the tip!
