Everyone should back up their customized vocabulary boards frequently. If your speech app is accidentally deleted or modified, or you need to send your device in for repair, you will have a copy to restore quickly.

We recommend using Dropbox for your backups. You can sign up for a free Dropbox basic account at dropbox.com/basic or through the Dropbox app if you have it installed on your device. 

  1. On the QuickTalker, open the Dropbox app and log in (if prompted).
  2. Open the TouchChat app.
  3. Go to the Files page by selecting Vocab (upper left) → Choose New Vocab.
  4. In the menu (upper right), select: Import/Export VocabDropboxExport to Dropbox.
  5. If you’re signed in but haven’t connected Dropbox yet, you’ll be redirected to the Dropbox app. Tap Allow to give TouchChat access, then you’ll return to TouchChat.
  6. Select the vocabulary file you’d like to back up.
  7. Tap Upload. You should see a confirmation message: Upload Complete.
  8. Open the Dropbox app. Check under Files (bottom left) to confirm the folder/file path:
    Apps → TouchChat w/ WordPower → [file].ce
