Choose the correct upgrade, migration, or downgrade path based on the current version.
When switching between V1 and V2, please first choose the corresponding instructions:
Before switching versions, create a full backup in the app, then completely quit Cherry Studio and copy the entire data directory. Backups from V1 and V2 cannot be restored to each other.
V2.0.2 now supports direct migration from V1.9.13, so V2.0.0 is no longer required as an intermediary.
Still on V1 and need to keep data
Update V1 to 1.9.13, then install V2.0.2 directly to complete the migration.
Already using V2
Upgrade to V2.0.2 normally and continue using the current V2 data.
Previously failed to migrate V1 or missed some data
Only after fully backing up the current V2 can you use [Remigrate].
Do not need V1 data
You can choose [Ignore and use default values], but V1 data will not be migrated.
The [Remigrate] option under [Settings] → [Data] will permanently delete the current V2 data and then re-import from the original V1 data. It does not merge data from both sides; if V1 migration did not fail or data was not missing, do not click it.
For more on backups, migration failures, and database notes, see [Upgrade and Downgrade].
