> Hi guys, Just to be Clear: This is NOT about [Athom’s Homey Cloud Backup](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-cloud-backup-part-of-homey-subscription/24523) and/or [Homey + Subscription](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-subscription/24522) I created a Homey Community Backup & Restore Web App (HCB&RWA). This makes it possible to create and download a Zip file with the Alarms, Logic, Apps, Zones, Devices, Folders and Flows on your Homey. After that it is possible to Select a previous downloaded Zip backup and restore these objects on this or another Homey. Community Backup & Restore works best from a Desktop browser, pls do …

I hope it will help some ppl here to have some sort of Back-up and Restore
