Hi
I just got a new Moto G3. All my data is on my old Rugby Smart (Samsung). I've spent 2 days trying to transfer the data over, but no luck. Anybody help?
PS the Fit has been getting 41+ mpg since the weather warmed up.

Absolutely. All the research I've done says it's not possible, not even with a paid upgrade.

That's strange. Where were you looking?
It's noted in the FAQ within the app-
Quote:
How do I move to a new phone or tablet?
If you're using the PRO edition:- Launch aCar on your old phone/tablet.
- Go to Import/Export Center and take a full backup of your data.
- Connect your old phone/tablet to your computer and copy the content of following directory from your old SD-Card (or from the internal storage of your phone/tablet depending on the brand and model) to the new one:
- /zonewalker-acar/*.abp
- Install aCar on your new phone/tablet, and launch it.
- You will get the auto restore dialog right after the launch.
- Choose the backup file you're going to restore from and DONE!
- Upgrade to Pro on your new phone/tablet.
- If you somehow manage to miss the auto restore dialog, just go to Import/Export Center and manually restore your backup from there.
- If everything went fine on your new phone/tablet, it's safe to uninstall aCar from the old one.
If you're using the FREE edition:- Connect your old phone/tablet to your computer and copy the content of following directory, where your automatic backup files are stored, from your old SD-Card (or from the internal storage of your phone/tablet depending on the brand and model) to the new one:
- /zonewalker-acar/*.abp
- Install aCar on your new phone/tablet, and launch it.
- You will get the auto restore dialog right after the launch.
- Choose the backup file you're going to restore from and DONE!
- If everything went fine on your new phone/tablet, it's safe to uninstall aCar from the old one.

OK Connected my old phone to my computer. Now what? I can't find it on the computer. It used to register, but I can't find it now.

making headway.
OK my old phone was plug and play. It automatically installed itself. The Moto G3 required that I go to motorola's website and download a connection manager. Now I can see the Moto G on my computer. I am going to re-try your instructions to see if I can transfer the data. Thanks for the kick start. The only place I did not try for transfer instructions was the ap itself.

OK this is getting maddening. I can now see both phones on my computer. With only the Rugby plugged in, I can see the aCar file, but not the /zonewalker-acar/*.abp. If I do a search, the computer can't find it. What am I doing wrong? Do I need to move the file (on the phone) to another location before I can transfer it?
