Save Copy As Versus Save As
The Save Copy As and Save As options serve different purposes, and their behavior is
also different.
- To save your app in a format that can be edited in earlier releases, use Save Copy As.
When you use this option, App Designer saves the copy of the app in the specified
folder, but it does not replace the app in your current session. - To save a copy of your app that is editable only with the current release, use Save As.
When you use this option, App Designer saves the copy of the app in the specified
folder and replaces the app in your current session.
