Local, Smooth Play and Ranked saves
Local saves and recent daily snapshots stay in the browser. Smooth Play saves have a separate device copy plus cloud backup; backups run after daily settlement, important upgrades and periodic checks when progress changes. Ranked progress stays server-run. Clearing browser data can erase local progress and unsent casual changes. Only the last successful cloud backup is available on another device.
Create a backup before moving devices
- Check that the mode bar says Local shop. If you are online, switch back through Shops & friends first.
- Open Settings → Back up progress. On the Progress code screen, choose Download file for a JSON backup, or Copy code to save the complete code beginning with TTN1:.
- Keep the file or code somewhere you can find again. Downloaded files use the pattern tiem-tra-nho-ngay-[day].json; add the backup date to your notes to distinguish different saves.
- Check that the file downloaded or the code was pasted in full before clearing site data, changing browsers or resetting your shop.
A backup captures progress when you create it. Later sales and upgrades do not update an old file or code automatically, so create a fresh backup when needed.
Restore from a code or file
Using a TTN1: code
- Open local play on the destination device. If you already play there, back up its current progress first.
- Choose Settings → Restore from code and paste the complete code, including TTN1: at the beginning.
- Choose Check & restore. A valid code opens a confirmation screen.
- Choose Restore to replace current progress, or Keep progress to cancel. After restoring, check the day, cash and stock.
Using a JSON file
Open Settings → Import backup file, select the file downloaded from the game, then confirm Restore. Renaming another file to end in .json does not make it a valid save.
Return to a recent day
Choose Settings → Restore auto save. Review the day, cash and rating shown, select a save and confirm. The current browser keeps up to three end-of-day saves; the list may be empty if you have not completed a day.
Restoring replaces your current progress; it does not combine the money or ingredients from two saves. Clearing site data can also erase automatic saves stored in that browser.
Resetting and recovery
Keep an exported backup before resetting. Local and Smooth Play reset tools affect the selected shop; they do not reset a separate ranked shop. Recent device snapshots and downloaded JSON/code backups can help recover progress. Cloud backups retain the latest save and three previous versions for support recovery. There is no self-service ranked reset or account deletion button; contact [email protected] for account requests. Do not send passwords or cookies.
Continue safely on another device
First choose Back up now on the old device and confirm “Backed up”. On the new device, sign in, open the Smooth Play shop, review the cloud progress and choose Continue from cloud backup. This takes over cloud saving. If both devices have changes, old versions cannot overwrite newer backups. Unsent browser-tab copies are available for download in the shop preview. They are not merged automatically.
A second shop and archive deadlines
After a ranked owner chooses to open a fresh second shop in Smooth Play, the retained ranked shop is archived after 14 days without ranked gameplay. The ranked archive, including its recovery copies, is permanently deleted after 90 days from archiving and can no longer be restored in the game. Restoring before the deadline cancels that deletion countdown and starts a new 14-day inactivity period. Signing in, visiting shops, cosmetic changes and Smooth Play do not extend ranked activity. This rule does not delete the Smooth Play shop, Local shop, account, friends or privacy settings.
Open Shops & friends → Shops to open the new shop or restore an archive before its displayed deletion date. The new Smooth Play shop starts on day 1 with 400k; it does not copy ranked money or items. While the ranked shop is archived, permitted visitors see your latest Smooth Play backup. Archives are processed by hourly maintenance, never before 14 full days without ranked gameplay.
Which backup should you use?
- Playing on one device: progress saves in that browser; export a file or code when you want to keep a separate milestone.
- Changing browser or phone: export from the place showing the right shop, then import on the new device. With Smooth Play, wait for a successful cloud backup before taking over.
- Already played on two devices: stop making changes, keep the device copies and compare shop name, day and save time. Money and ingredients are not merged.
- Missing shop after adding an icon: return to the original browser first; the icon may open a different session. Check backups before resetting anything.
An earlier backup does not contain drinks sold after it was made. Review its contents before confirming a restore, which replaces the selected progress. Compare save locations by mode or contact support if you cannot identify the right copy.
