AudioLayer - how do I move an instrument & samples to LOCAL storage from iCloud?
I have a setup on an old iPhone where all my AudioLayer instruments are shown as being in iCloud. Of course they take a very long time to download. In AL's settings I see my storage is set to iCloud so I change it to local, go back to AudioLayer and these instruments are gone – can't find them to select and load. OK, back to iCloud storage I guess. Once I do load one in from the cloud I see an option to "Move" an instrument but that seems to only work to move within the folder hierarchy. I want to have these instruments and their samples ON MY PHONE, always available. What am I missing? The manual is not much help. TIA to anyone that can assist!

You can make a local copy of each instrument you want to have local: Set the storage to iCloud and the save it with the option "local Copy":
I appreciate your reply, especially considering you probably think I'm a blithering idiot for not seeing that "Make a local copy" option - but the fact is that I don't see it on my iPhone SE 2016! The on-screen keyboard covers it. I've looked in Settings-->Keyboards for any way to dismiss the keyboard so I can see that switch. I'm running iOS 15.6.1 which is as far as it can go. Your screenshot shows the button on the lower right for dismissing the keyboard - as you can see, I don't have that.

[edit #2 - ARE YOU HARRY?? ha ha, sorry man]
@reezekeys Yes i am😂😂 Will have a look at this
Thanks Harry! I had the idea of creating a .zip of the instrument and samples, get it into a folder in the phone's local Files app, open it in AudioLayer with storage set to "local", then saving. I might try that tomorrow. Thinking off the top of my head here, so maybe there's an easier way too.
Just a postcript that I've worked things out and was able to transfer some AudioLayer instruments from iCloud to local storage without using the "make a local copy" button. On one of my other iPhones I was able to make the button appear by going into the system settings --> display & brighness --> text size and making text as small as possible. That opened up space on the AudioLayer screen where I could move & resize the window to the point where the "make a local copy" button was visible. In other cases I transferred from one i-device to another by creating a .zip with all samples then airdropping to the other device, where AudioLayer was set on local storage. I know Apple makes it confusing, but ultimately I achieved my goal - to show up at a gig and have all my AudioLayer instruments work!
Edit. Mistake. Apologies
