New: download the game from Steam
Game files → Download from Steam… downloads FINAL FANTASY VII straight from Steam with your own Steam account, so you no longer need to copy the game's folder onto the device. Sign in once by scanning a QR code with the Steam app on your phone; you never type your Steam password into FF7Recomp. The download is about 3.3 GB. Every file is checked against Steam's copy, and if the download stops, pressing the button again carries on where it left off.
Once the game is installed, Repair from Steam checks every game file and downloads only the missing or damaged ones. Picking a folder (Find my FF7 folder…) still works as before.
New: Steam Cloud saves
Achievements → Steam Cloud saves → Sync my saves with Steam Cloud (off until you turn it on) puts your save files in FINAL FANTASY VII's Steam Cloud before and after you play. Another Android device signed in to the same Steam account picks up where you left off.
- A save changed on one device only goes to the other.
- A save changed on both keeps the newer copy.
- Any save about to be replaced is first copied to
Android/data/com.ff7recomp/files/steam/cloud-backup.
FF7Recomp's saves are kept in their own FF7Recomp folder in the game's Steam Cloud. The PC game's own saves are a different format, so they aren't synced with FF7Recomp's yet, and they are never changed.
Requested on Reddit. Tested on an AYN Thor:
- A full download from Steam, compared file by file with an imported copy.
- Saves synced between two separate save folders on the same device: one-sided changes in both directions, and a save changed on both sides.
Updating
- In the launcher, go to Settings → Updates (or install this APK over your current version), then press Play.
