Restore Timeline

Restore points are local safety snapshots. Restore Timeline turns them into a searchable history of important changes.

When restore points are useful

Restore Timeline

Restore Timeline groups snapshots by day, shows readable reasons and context, and includes search and action filters. You can restore a snapshot after confirmation or export a restore point as a JSON backup.

Aura Start keeps up to 20 local restore points. The cap prevents unbounded growth in extension storage; use Full Backup JSON exports for long-term backup history outside the browser profile.

Before restoring

Restoring changes your current local Aura Start data. Aura Start creates a new restore point for the current state before restore where possible, so you have a way back if the restored snapshot is not the one you wanted.

Good habits

Restore points are helpful, but they are still local browser data. Keep a Full Backup JSON file somewhere safe before very large changes.
