Last updated
Ambient consoles push to your online account. The phone shows graphs, alerts, and tiles from that cloud. Local files are login plus cache.
Same login means same stations. Exact cache names shift with awn app generations. Keep consoles online during swaps. If history thins, check the login email first. A personal versus shared station key mixup is the usual empty dashboard cause, fixed by joining the right station. When in doubt, verify paths inside the app before trusting a remembered folder. Screenshots of settings help when support asks for reproduction steps later.

Frequently asked questions
How do I move Ambient stations to a new phone?
Stations and history follow your Ambient Weather Network account. Sign in on the new phone with the same login. Consoles upload over WiFi to the account. Check the station ID before wiping, since a second account shows empty.
How far back does Ambient history go?
Yes, in Ambient Weather Network cloud for the covered window. The phone holds login and chart cache. Trends rebuild after sign in. Export CSVs from the dashboard for archiving, since the phone never holds the master copy.
