          @marius-ciclistu The only that i am aware of:

          backup the history database

          adb pull /home/phablet/.local/share/history-service/history.sqlite
          

          restore:

          adb push history.sqlite /home/phablet/.local/share/history-service/history.sqlite
          

          reboot your device

          Note that i'm not sure if the database is 100% fine when switching to another device, as you can have some account id change

            In your first command there is too much "history.sqlite" ^^

                  Try adb pull /home/phablet/.local/share/history-service/history.sqlite

                  As i said, too much "history.sqlite" in the command you quoted (misstaping from @lduboeuf ^^)

                  By the way do you know how to use adb ?

                      Are you running it from your PC ? ( your device must be connected through usb cable, and developer mode enabled to access it from adb)

                              To clarify the answer from Lionel, the android based ports can use ADB. This is not the case for the PinePhone.

                                  AFAIK, yes.
                                  If the device was shipped with Android at some point, you can bet it is.
