How to manually migrate your words and progress to Wokabulary 6

When you first launch Wokabulary 6, all your existing data from Wokabulary 5 will automatically be imported.

However, if you decide to keep using Wokabulary 5 for a bit longer and later want to switch to Wokabulary 6, this imported data will be outdated and you will want to re-import your data.

In Wokabulary 6

In Wokabulary 6 click the import button in the toolbar and select the vocabulary file you want to migrate from the Wokabulary 5 Export folder. It contains one .wokvj file for each of your vocabularies, and you can import them individually.

Note that when you import a .wokvj file, Wokabulary 6 will create a new vocabulary for this.

If you already had vocabularies in Wokabulary 6, you probably want to delete these after a successful import. You can manage your vocabularies in Settings > Languages
