Export my data

The records you build up in loadmate — your vehicle and trailer details, the way you pack, your weigh-ins, and your service, tyre, and warranty history — are yours to keep. Export my data hands them back to you as a single spreadsheet you can open on a computer or phone, print for a folder, or pass to a mechanic or the next owner of your rig. It is a portable copy that lives outside the app. Once it is saved to your device, it is an ordinary spreadsheet file — it opens in Excel, Numbers, or Google Sheets, and it keeps working whether or not you still use loadmate. Think of it as a printout of everything you have entered, gathered into one tidy file so nothing is stranded inside the app.

​

Where to find it

You will find this under Export my data. Open the More tab, then Settings, then Export my data in the Data & Privacy group. On a larger screen, such as a tablet, the same page may appear in a panel beside your other settings rather than on its own — it is the same thing, and it works the same way.

​

What you can export

Everything the export includes is your own caravan record-keeping — not the app’s own settings. When you open the page, loadmate shows you a short list of what it found, with a count beside each kind of record, so you can see at a glance what is about to go into the file. The file can include:

• Your vehicles and trailers — makes, models, registrations, weight ratings, and tyre details.
• Everything you have loaded — each item, its weight, and where it is stored.
• Weigh-ins — the readings you have recorded at a weighbridge.
• Service and tyre history — what was done, when, the odometer reading, and the cost.
• Maintenance tasks — what is due, and what you have already ticked off.
• Warranty — the cover you have logged and any issues you have raised.
• Trips — the journeys you have planned or recorded.

​

Export it to a spreadsheet

Creating the file takes a single tap, and you choose where it is saved. Exporting never changes or removes anything. Your records stay exactly as they are in the app; the spreadsheet is simply a copy.

​

What’s inside the file

The workbook opens with a Summary page — the date you exported, your region, and how many of each kind of record are inside — followed by one clearly-named tab for each: Vehicles, Trailers, Loads, Weigh-ins, Service history, Tyres, Maintenance, Warranty, and Trips. If you have no records of a certain kind, that tab is simply left out, so the file only ever shows what you actually have. The figures read the way they do in the app. Weights and distances use your region’s units — kilograms or pounds, kilometres or miles — and the column headings use your region’s towing words, so a heading says GVM, MAM, or GVWR to match the paperwork you copied the numbers from in the first place. If any of those words are unfamiliar, the glossary explains each one in plain English.

​

It’s a Pro feature

Export my data is part of loadmate Pro. If you are on the free version, the page explains this and offers to upgrade rather than leaving you guessing.

​

Keep your file safe

The spreadsheet holds your own details — registrations, weights, and notes you have written. That is exactly what makes it useful, but it also means it is worth keeping somewhere private, the same as you would any document with your rig’s details on it. loadmate cannot reach the file once it is on your device, so where it lives, and who you share it with, is entirely up to you.
