Restore Android Purchases

Restore Android Purchases

Note: Purchases don't transfer between Google and Apple, only between devices of the same OS.

This process only works if your previous device was also a Google device. Purchases are tied to your Google account; ensure you are logged into the same account on your new device. (FAQ)

So, you just got a fancy new Android device and want to get your original purchases from your Google account onto your new device. Here is how that works:

Step 1

Open the app while on Wi-Fi or with good cell service.

Wait a few minutes. Google pushes purchase records to the device after the app opens, but it can take a moment for the sync to complete.

Step 2

Tap Add/Remove Area from the main screen.

Tap Add/Remove
Step 3

Choose an area you have already purchased.

In the example below, we are selecting Capitol Reef.

Select Area
Step 4

Tap the Download button.

Since the area was already purchased, the system will recognize the license and show a Download button instead of a price. Tap it to begin.

Download Area
Step 5

Return to the Home Screen.

Once the download is complete, go back two screens. The area will now be visible in your installed list.
