QuickPlanX Project File

QuickPlanX supports saving projects in files with the .quickplanx file extension.

QuickPlanX is not a document-based app. Instead, QuickPlanX stores projects on iCloudKit (a database on iCloud), so projects are not saved as files by default. However, for sharing projects among users and backup purposes, QuickPlanX supports storing projects in files with the .quickplanx file extension.

Backup to QuickPlanX file​

QuickPlanX supports automatically backing up projects stored on iCloud to files with the .quickplanx file extension.
