Here are some tips

SAVE FILE:

A file containing all Throws or meets Throws will be saved on your device and listed in the files folder found on your device. Remember, to save space and memory, Files might overwrite as new files are saved. Manage, rename or store previously saved files appropriately if you want to keep older versions of your Throws.

SETTINGS:

If you choose to reset all your Throw data (delete all), your Personal Best (PB) and Personal Record (PR) will reset after deleting of the Throw data.
