</div>

<div>
From time to time, it might be necessary or desirable to export a StraboMobile project from your
mobile device to a PC or Mac. You might want to keep a permanent offline copy of your projects' data,
or you might want to share a project with another user or a member of the Strabo development team.
Whatever the reason, the following steps should allow you to export a StraboMobile project to your PC or Mac.
</div>

<div style="text-align:center;padding-top:15px;">
	<h2 class="wsite-content-title">FIRST, EXPORT PROJECT TO MOBILE DEVICE</h2>
</div>

<div class="howtostep">
	<ol class="olsteps">
		<li>
			With the desired project and datasets active within StraboMobile, click on the upper-left menu and choose Project -> Manage.
		</li>
		<li>
			From the Manage Project page, click on the three-dot menu in the upper-right corner and choose Export Project to Device.
		</li>
		<li>
			Confirm or change the folder name you would like to export to. It is likely safe to keep the default value.
		</li>
		<li>
			Click Save to export the folder to your device.
		</li>
	</ol>
</div>

<div style="padding-top:15px;">
Now that the project has been exported to your mobile device, you will need to transfer this project
to your PC or Mac.
