    How do I clone an app other than creating a new app and restoring from backup? Why is there no simple "clone" button?

      @philkunz You need an app backup. But then it's very simple.

        @luckow Thank you. Did not find the button. From a UX perspective I feel there should be a button to simply clone an app... Maybe I have a current state, that I want to test something on... And a quick clone button, that creates a backup, clones from that, then deletes the backup again would be perfect somehow.

          @philkunz Let's wait and see what the new UI in Cloudron 9 brings. If you still don't like it, why don't you make a wireframe suggestion in a feature request?

            Cloudron 9 has pretty much the same flow here. Maybe we have to revisit what the main app cloning use-case is, to figure out a better flow there.
