Dropbox as Auto-Backup System was created by admin
Having a backup of your Lyric Pad 3 data is important and easy to overlook.
For this reason I like to set up an autobackup to dropbox so that if my device ever fails I always have an up to date copy of my files in DropBox
  1. Do a manual backup of your data - just in case (refer manual for instructions)
  2. Install Lyric Pad 3 and run it at least once
  3. Determine the location of your Lyric Pad 3 directory in your device's file system. Default is /Android/data/com.dna.lyricpad3/files/
  4. Open your dropbox account and create a LyricPad3 folder
  5. Download and install the app "DropSync" on your device from google play store. Only the free version is necessary but it is worth supporting the developer of DropSync as it is a good app
  6. Set up dropsync to sync from your device's /Android/data/com.dna.lyricpad3/files/ directory to the /LyricPad3/ folder in DropBox as a two way sync
  7. Set up the default sync options in dropsync
  8. Tell dropsync to sync.
  9. Check the LyricPad folder in dropbox. It should now contain a mirror of the LyricPad folder on your device.
