How to migrate to Hymnals 2

How can I migrate from the original Hymnals App to the new Hymnals 2 App? 

If you are currently a user of the original Hymnals App, migrating from the original Hymnals App to the new Hymnals 2 App is easy. Follow the steps below.  (Annotations created in the original Hymnals App will not transfer to the new Hymnals 2 App.)

  1. Make sure you have an account on giamusic.com
    If you you do not have an account, you can create one for free by visiting https://www.giamusic.com/store/register
  2. On the original Hymnals App, login to your account in the Account view.
  3. After you are logged in, on the Account view click on the blue “Back up now” button. Wait for the backup to complete.
  4. Once the original Hymnals App backup is complete, login to the new Hymnals 2 App.
  5. While logged in in the Hymnals 2 App, on the Account view, select the “Restore” link on the most recent backup. The date and time should match the date and time you backed up the original Hymnals App. 
  6. Wait for the restore process to complete. Then navigate to the Library view to watch your purchased hymnals download. Let the hymnals completely download before closing the app.
