SIF1 Data Transfer

School Idol Festival players were advised to enable Game Data Transfer shall they wanted to keep some in-game progress going into SIF2. The in-game progress that would be able to transfer over into SIF2 includes the Album, Titles, and Player Rank (and the like).

This process had to be done within SIF1, specifically using the Game Data Transfer banner and following the steps as seen here:

A player would have correctly enabled Game Data Transfer if they received a screen similar to the last one in the tutorial. Unfortunately players from the EU / EEA areas were excluded from this feature, along with other players excluded from seeing the Game Data Transfer button at all despite not residing within the EU / EEA.

The period to retrieve an exclusive User ID and Transfer Password was February 2nd, 21:00 JST - March 31st, 16:00 JST (2023).

How to Transfer Game Data from SIF1 → SIF2

Starting from the Homescreen, locate the Menu button with three lines on the upper right corner.

The next step is to find and tap the Memorial Album, as seen in the photo with a album-like icon.

Players can enter the User ID and Transfer Password they received back in SIF1 in the dedicated entry fields. Keep in mind that SIF1 Transfer Passwords only work for the corresponding SIF2 version (JP to JP , GL to GL). Beware of the letter O and number 0 , as well as the letter I and number 1, as they appear very similarly. This process can only be done ONCE.

And you're finished! The Memorial Album here in SIF2 looks very similar to that of SIF1, so browsing it should be just as simple. Lastly, you can find the Titles you had in SIF1 within the game! For completing this transfer, players can get x1 - x10 Scout 10 Tickets depending on their game progress (to be determined if by rank, number of cards within the SIF1 album, etc).
