Hello,
We use Mobile sheet for a band.
Eatch member save his backup in the same Google Drive.
The reason is : we have a bacckup tablet in case of problem.
In that situation the memeber can restore his config in the spare tablet.

Could it be possible to remember or give a diferent Backup Name

MobileSheets_2025-01-26 can of course be saved in different directory BUT, one member fail selecting it and the general backup was replaced...

Id the name was keeped, that wasn't occure.

Drum_MobileSheets_2025-01-26
Bass_MobileSheets_2025-01-26

etc...

Could it be added to standards ?

Thanks for reading

At some point I could try to support a formatting option for the default backup name, but this is not a trivial thing to add, so I'm not sure what the timeline will be for that. If more users request it, that can help with determining priorities.

Maybe I haven't understood the question, but if each member is backing up their own library, wouldn't it be easier for each member to add their name to the file name, e.g. George_Drum_MobileSheets_2025-01-26.msb?

That's how I differentiate between the various instrument library back-ups on my devices e.g. 1st_trombone_2025-1-26.msb, 2nd_trombone_2025-1-26.msb etc.

And what append if user forget ?
I read some post about difficultys to manage band with Mobile Sheets...

Having a shared drive is confortable for the conductor ...

Users don't belive in forum requests, i mean.A request is usefull or not...Lot of users asked for a memory of default backup directory, but nothing append.

MobileSheets does remember the last used backup directory. If you create a backup, then go back in and tap the folder icon, then any of the selections, it will go right back to the folder you saved the backup file. So I'm not sure what you meant by that last comment, but I absolutely do listen to requests and address them when I can. There are a LOT of requests to work through though, and they take time. I will also be trying to address the request to automatically populate the default path and filename for the backup without having to tap the folder, but that only makes sense for local files. If you are complaining because I have not yet addressed that even though it was only requested last month, then that is a little unreasonable, and I would ask for you to be a little more patient than that, especially as that is a request from only one or two users, and not something I'm getting requests from lots of people for.
