Versions and restore

Changes are saved, so you can go back to an earlier version of the app.

Changes to a project are recorded, so a bad afternoon is never fatal. Automo Build supports rollback to earlier states of your app.

What a version is

A version is the state of the code after a change, whether it came from a chat message or a hand edit, with a short summary of what changed.

Reading the history

The project history shows what changed and when. It is the quickest way to answer "when did that break?".

Going back

You can restore an earlier version, or simply ask in the chat: "go back to how the booking page was before the redesign." Your live app is not affected until you publish again.

Undo just the last thing

For small mistakes, say "undo that" in the chat.

What versions do not cover

Versions are about code and structure. They do not roll back your data: records your users created, uploaded files, or emails already sent. If a change altered the database shape, restoring the code does not undo that.

Before a large change to live data, ask for a backup first. Then restoring code and data are two separate, safe decisions.

Before a risky experiment

Before trying something big, note where you are, for example by asking the builder to remember the current state as your starting point, or by publishing a known-good version first.

Next: Testing your app.
