BACK UP GAME FILES

We strongly suggest having 'Automatic Weekly Save' enabled in the game settings so you always have a recent backup of your save.

iOS Android

 

  • On your device, tap on the Settings button and tap on [Save Game].
  • On the Save Career page tap the [Export to iCloud] button.
  • Once the Export to iCloud pop-up appears, tap [Yes].
  • Your saves will now be using one of the 8 folders in the iCloud storage and will continue to save in this area automatically.

 


 

EXPORT SAVES TO ANOTHER DEVICE OR COMPUTER

 

iOS Android

  iCloud

  • On your device, tap on the Settings button and tap on [Save Game].
  • On the Save Career page tap the [Export to iCloud] button.
  • Once the Export to iCloud pop-up appears, tap [Yes].
  • Your saves will now be using one of the 8 folders in the iCloud storage and will continue to save in this area automatically.

PC

  • Load up Apple Devices with the iOS device connected and click on the device icon in the toolbar.
  • From here click on File Sharing and then on the FM26 Mobile icon.
  • This will open up FM26 Mobile Documents in the right-hand window.
  • The saves folder can be identified as it has a name that is a 25-character-long alphanumeric string (e.g. PFULBYHXJREHTDLIZWFRV7VQ6U).
  • Click on the folder with the 25-character-long string as a name and then click on [Save] and then select Desktop and click on [Select Folder].
  • This will download the entire folder to the user’s Desktop and the user can then use the device to help identify which save game they need to access in the folder.

 

IMPORT SAVES FROM ANOTHER DEVICE OR COMPUTER

 

iOS Android

  iCloud

You can import save games which you have used the ‘Back Up’ instructions above to save to iCloud. You will need to be signed into the same iCloud account to which you saved the career. Simply go to the Load Game screen and select the iCloud tab at the top.

Your career will continue to save automatically to the cloud in this case. If you would prefer to have it save in the game’s internal storage, you can follow the steps below, but this is not a necessary step:

  • From the main menu tap [Load Game].
  • Tap on the [Cloud] tab on the top of the Saved Games menu.
  • Select which career you would like to import and once the file is highlighted, tap [Import From iCloud].
  • Once the Import From iCloud pop-up appears, tap [Yes].
  • Once the import happens, you will see the folder from step 3 in the internal saves folder structure.

Note – If you load this save locally all auto and manual saves will now take place in the internal file structure and not from the cloud.

PC

  • Follow the instructions in ‘Export – iOS – To PC’ above to download the device’s save file folder to the your PC.
  • In Apple Devices, select the saves folder (i.e. the folder with the 25-character-long alphanumeric string as a name, for example PFULBYHXJREHTDLIZWFRV7VQ6U,) and tap on the Delete Key then click on [Delete] in the pop-up.
  • Return to the PC’s Desktop and navigate through the folder with the 25-character-long alphanumeric string as a name to find an empty career save folder (/games/career_x where x is a number between 1 and 8).
  • Copy the save game that you want to put onto the device into the first empty career folder.
  • Return to Apple Devices and to the same File Sharing screen with FM26 Mobile selected.
  • Drag and drop the folder with the 25-character-long random string as a name into the FM26 Mobile Documents window.
  • Once the progress bar at the top of Apple Devices shows as complete it will then be safe to disconnect the device and load up the game to load up the save.

 

INSTALL UPDATES

Most updates of this nature should download automatically but if yours doesn’t, head to the App/Play store and search for FM26 Mobile. If an update is available, you'll see the 'Update' button instead of 'Play'.

For any other installation or updates-related issues, please submit a ticket

 


 

CHANGE LANGUAGE

USE ICLOUD FUNCTIONALITY

Ensure you have iCloud set up on your device and that you are logged in.

From the Save Game page you can access the iCloud save slots using the tab at the top.

To load a game from iCloud, access the slots from the Load Game screen by selecting the tab.


 

PLAY AS A NATIONAL TEAM AND CONFIRM A NATIONAL SQUAD

To play as a National Team in FM26 Mobile, select your nations when starting your save, and when selecting your Team, you'll see an additional option on the right for National Teams.

For international tournaments, it is necessary to call up a certain number of players (usually 23) to the National Team squad.

If your squad contains the incorrect number of players, you will be told the requirement when attempting to confirm your squad in a news message.

You will need to remove any excess players or call up additional players to fit the criteria.
