How to back up Vinted listings before you relist

How to back up Vinted listings: save original photos on this computer in VintAssist, then restore them from Edit after a relist. Not a cloud backup.

Backup before you relist. A relist is a new listing. Photo recipes (crop, tilt) change the files Vinted stores. If you want the originals later, they have to live on this computer first.

VintAssist Backup does not upload photos to Extensions Hub. Switch machines and you need to back up again.

Panel steps also live in How to backup Vinted listing photos. Relist: How to relist on Vinted automatically. Restore: How to edit Vinted listing photos.

How to back up Vinted listings

  1. Open your closet in Chrome → teal VA button → Backup.
  2. Select listings in the left panel (new items you have not saved yet).
  3. Press Save and stay on the tab.
  4. Already-backed-up listings are skipped so you do not duplicate.
  5. Review or delete local backups later in Settings.

Then run Relist. Afterward, if the new photos went too far: Edit → Restore original backup photos.

What backup is not

It is not a full listing export (title, description, and attributes as a spreadsheet). It is original photos for restore. It is not sync across phones.

FAQ

Do I back up before every relist?

At least once per listing before the first relist. Repeat if you replaced photos on Vinted and want those newer originals saved.

Are backups encrypted in the cloud?

They stay in the extension’s local storage on that computer. Read Privacy.

Can I backup from the iPhone app?

No. Desktop Chrome, same as the rest of VintAssist.
