Export / Import function works but needs user file editing.

I tried updating Cinelog today, but my phone refused, I forgot the reason why. So I exported my database, deleted Cinelog and installed the new version.

That's when I hit the problem. All the exported files in Android/media/com.ulicae.cinelog are file named as export(section name).csv When you want to import your backup, the app looks for files called import(section name).csv

So I renamed all the files so that Cinelog would find and import them. My film list returned but smaller. After looking at files, I realised what else I needed to do.

I had to go to Android/media/com.ulicae.cinelog/saves/movie/export(latest date).csv copy that to Android/media/com.ulicae.cinelog and rename it to import_movies.csv.

Then my list of watched films returned.
