Can we backup/restore wallet address labels? (I know of many people using a lot of addresses in XDCpay). Anytime they change browser and/or computer it is challenging to relabel tens (and in some cases hundreds) of wallets.

The ability to backup and restore them would be amazing

Hello @s4njk4n

The team is exploring how we can add the accounts automatically with a seed phrase.

For now, If you are importing your old account with a seed phrase, all your accounts will be recovered. For this, you need to click the "Create Account" button, to recover your account related to that seed phrase.

In XDCPay 1.0, if you have imported some accounts with Private Key or with Keystore file, then make sure you are doing the same thing in XDCPay 2.0 so that it will restore the imported accounts.

You can download the stats log to know the Account Names(Address labels), To download the "stats log": Visit Settings -> Advanced setting -> "Download Stats Log".

Thank Ivan. For the users I'm referring to, the wallet addresses themselves wont be a problem as they're all imported from Trezor so they can just reimport them all as normal whenever setting up a new instance of XDCpay. Its more the actual labels that are ascribed to each wallet address to describe its purpose. Its great to be able to download them in the Stats Log. I guess what I'm getting at is that when setting up a new instance of XDCpay it would be great to be able to just import all the Address labels instead of having to manually type them all every time a new instance of XDCpay is installed/setup. In a situation where one would have 50 or even 400 wallet addresses, this process becomes very cumbersome at present (and yes I do know several people who have and actively use this many wallet addresses so I'm not just theorising). How do we get this functionality added?
