Maybe this is interesting for those how want to transfer the save games from one Android Device ( no root ) to an other one ( no root ). I successfully transfered my save games from my nexus 5 phone to my nexus 7 tablet. It is not the most simply way to do it, but it works and is simpler than all the other solutions I tried without success. First you need the Android App called “Helium - App Sync and Backup”. > > > Helium is the missing app sync and backup solution for Android.Helium does NOT require root. All Android users can use Helium to backup and sync Android applications.Helium lets you backup your apps and data to your SD card or cloud storage. With Helium, you can sync app data from your other Android devices-- even if they are not on the same network. Set up backup schedules with Helium, and never lose data again.Helium Setup1. Install Helium on Android a) Root user? You're done!2. Install and r... Helium is able to save all your app data (save games), also the stuff that is not really accessable without a rooted device. Second, you need to set your devices into Developer Mode and use a PC to sync with the Helium Desktop App which is a server on the PC for the android devices. Here is the wiki to the Helium App and how to setup everything correctly. > **[koush/support-wiki](https://github.com/koush/support-wiki/wiki/Helium-Desktop-Installer-and-Android-App)** > > Contribute to support-wiki development by creating an account on GitHub. The simple way to backup and restore your data to an other device is to use the Pro Version of Helium, because than you can use GDrive or an other cloud service to store the data. Otherwise you need to copy the data from the backup folder of the first device to the second device. Which not work for me. So I bought the pro version for 3 Euros and used the cloud and it works like a charm. Hope this helps. If you have questions, just ask me. But anyway, it would be amazing if Ron could add a transfer save games option/button to the game. It would be an easy thing for a the developer to save the games to the memory card of the device, where everyone could access without rooting the device or using this solution.
