Save, share and recover plans

How saving works

1. 1

   Autosave

   While you work, the planner keeps a recovery copy in the current browser. Autosave is convenient but should not be your only copy of an important plan.

2. 2

   Save or Download

   Press Save (or Download on newer plans) to get an editable PNG backup; Save on older plans also creates or updates a cloud share link.

3. 3

   Editable PNG

   This file is both a normal image and a portable plan backup. Keep it somewhere you can find again.

Share a plan

1. 1

   Copy the link

   Use Copy link in the Save window and send it to the person who needs the plan.

2. 2

   Choose the right audience

   Send privately to a partner, builder or supplier. Post publicly in r/freeroomplanner only when you are comfortable for anyone to view the plan.

3. 3

   Understand editing

   A recipient can open and work from a shared plan. If they do not own the original link, their save creates their own copy rather than overwriting yours.

Reopen or replace the current plan

1. 1

   Choose Load

   Open an editable PNG backup. Older JSON plan files are also supported for compatibility.

2. 2

   Confirm the file

   The planner validates the file before replacing the visible project. The maximum supported file size is 25MB.

3. 3

   Continue editing

   All saved room tabs, walls, items, labels, notes and compatible 3D styling are restored.

Recover recent work

• ✓Open Recent Plans from the Load flow and choose the version you want.
• ✓Use the current browser and device first, because autosaves and recent versions are stored locally.
• ✓If browser data has been cleared, use your editable PNG backup or cloud share link.
• ✓If an automatic download was blocked, use the Download button in the Save window to try again.
