Having a backup of your LyricPad data is important and easy to overlook.
For this reason I like to set up an autobackup to dropbox so that if my device ever fails I always have an up to date copy of my files in DropBox
  1. Install Lyric Pad and run it at least once
  2. Determine the location of your LyricPad directory in your device's file system
  3. Open your dropbox account and create a LyricPad folder
  4. Download and install the app "DropSync" on your device from google play store. Only the free version is necessary but it is worth supporting the developer of DropSync as it is a good ap
  5. Set up dropsnc to sync from your device's LyricPad directory to the LyricPad folder in DropBox as a two way sync
  6. Set up the default sync options in dropsync
  7. Tell dropsync to sync.
  8. Check the LyricPad folder in dropbox. It should now contain a mirror of the LyricPad folder on your device.

This is useful. How can I add the configuration (fonts, preferences, etc) to the backup?
