What I would like to know is are we ever going to get Backup Dashboard and a Dark Theme on HS Mobile?

Found out how to restore my missing dashboard but only works on a Jail-broke Iphone. Found the HSMoble directory on my Iphone 11 IOS 13.5 Jail-broke. In the APP folder there is /Document/.config/ folder. Here there are two long UUID named folders and two other folders. One named with my old HS3 license number and the new HS4 license. These folders have images cached for use in HSMobile. I recognize many of the device icons and such.
In each of the UUID folders there is a widgets.json file that is the Dashboard config. I copied the older one from the HS3 setup to the newer folder for HS4 and fired up HSMobile and my Dashboard were back.
I am using FIleza app from the Cydia store to browse the file system. It decodes the cryptically named folders with the App name so it makes it easy to find app specific folders to do things like this.
Have also used a similar process to grab a copy of the HSTouch .xml I had lost from my PC. Have seen many threads over the years asking that question as well. Not sure how this works in Android but I have the IOS side figured out.
Have not tried this to transfer the widgets.json file to another device but will try that with newer IPad I have that is also jail-broke. If it works then I am in business and will have to get the wife's IPhone jail-broke to enable this and restore some WAF.
Will get some screen shots to add latter.

Success on device to device copies!
Copied the widgets.json file from my IPhone to IPad and it works. Both are Jailbroke with 13.5 IOS and both have the easy to use Fileza File manager app installed.
Now just need a export and import widgets.json function native to the app.

Originally posted by lingerba View PostI just upgraded to HS4 and had to rebuild all my dashboards on my phone and my wife's phone. She is looking at getting a new phone soon, which means I will have to rebuild hers again...that sucks. I would really love to see the save/share functionality for dashboards.
