How do I copy device settings to a new device?

In many instances it can be useful to copy device settings from one device to another. You might be setting up a new device and you want this to have the same settings as your other devices. Or you may be switching one device for another, and want the new device to match the old. 

1. From your device page, click into the device you want to copy settings from.
2. Select the rectangular icon at the top 'Copy Device Settings'. This should give a notification in the top right that the settings have been copied.
3. Go into the device settings for the second device (or register this first if you haven't already done so).
4. Select the clipboard icon, 'Paste Device Settings from (First device)'. The device settings should now be copied, as shown again by a notification in the top right corner.
