Backup! Various methods

Please do backups regularly. Here are various ways to backup from easiest to hardest.

If you have a newer iPad, it is also possible to Airdrop all of your files to a computer. Go to Settings->Utilities and choose Airdrop Documents to Computer. This will use Airdrop to send the entire Documents folder to a computer. This will be a complete backup of unrealBook files.
