 It is possible to create a textual backup of all your user-modified waypoint data in the personal note. You can upload this note to the geocaching server (if the used geocaching provider supports it) and thus easily backup your custom waypoint data. Due to the above described waypoint parsing this data can then be restored to your waypoint list in case it gets lost or is deleted from your local device. It is possible to create a textual backup of all your user-modified waypoint data in the personal note.

A textual section will be created in your personal note starting with ''{c:geo-start}'' and ending with ''{c:geo-end}''. It contains all user-defined waypoint data from the waypoint list in advanced waypoint syntax (which is explained in the next section).+To create the textual backup, use the icon {{:ic_menu_waypoint_sync.svg?nolink&30|}} under the personal note.

 +  * **Formula**: same rules apply as discussed in previous sections. Additionally there is a "special" formula tag ''(F-PLAIN)'' which can be used to specify a formula in the ''plain''-format. Cache-listings often contains already formulas in this format. You can specify any already known value for the variables separate by the ''|''-symbol. \\ The syntax of the formula must satisfy the criterias as described in [[en:coordinatedialog#using_plain_coordinate_format|Using Plain Coordinate Format]]. \\ If you can determine the values for the variables only step by step, it is recommended to enable ''Prevent waypoints extraction'' until you have entered all variables in the personal note. Then the waypoint can be created with all values and the coordinates are calculated. (Note: the other formats are in progress)
