How to move tasks from GoTasks app into another phone
In the end, I was able to use google synchronization and a reasonable amount of manual work to get the tasks on the new phone.
Here is what I did.
Step 1 through 5 are on the old phone, after that they are on the new phone.
Step1
Rename a list of tasks in TasksGo to add &quot;local&quot; or &quot;old&quot; at the end.
Step2
Create a new task list with the original name of the list renamed at Step1. Here, you need to link this new list to your google account.
Step3
Put the new list below the old one. Then, from the last to the first one, start drag and dropping all task from the old list into the list.
Step4
Delete the now empty old task list and repeat step 1 to 4 until there isn't any local task list anymore.
Step5
Hit synchronise in the app's menu. This wasn't enough for me because automatic sychronisation is off on my old phone. I had to go into Android:&quot;Setting\account&quot; to mannually hit synchronise on GoTasks's data there. If you don't have a google account linked to your phone, this is also the place to add it.
Step6
On the new phone, open goTask and hit synchronize and to import all the good stuff. Your might need to do the manual sych. in the phone's setting like for step5 if automatic synch is off.
I had many list of tasks that each had plenty of tasks, so I had to find a way. With the amount of data I had, it took me an hour, but it should be much less than that if your usage of this app is lightlier than mine.
