Is it possible to save data captured whilst offline directly from the device?

It is for a 5-day field trip which will be entirely out of range.  Am nervous about only having the captured data on a single mobile device.

I assume the structure could be different depending on which operating system you are using, but within the Field Maps folder on the device you will find folders that are named based on the Portal/AGOL and username.  Within these folders, you should see a "mapareas" folder, and then within these folders there should be folders that have the itemid of the maps you are taking offline.  Inside the itemid/map folders, you will find your replica folder which contains a folder (named p13 in my current install/version) that has all of the mobile geodatabases.  It is probably easiest to just find the replica folder you need to back up (check the date created/edited), and copy that one elsewhere.  In an emergency where something happens to the field device, these mobile geodatabses can be dragged into ArcGIS Pro and synced.

Thanks. I forgot to update my post - I found an older version of this page yesterday but not this updated version.
