Homebrew Transfer Save from Cart to SD Install

S'up folks

I dumped one of my carts to CIA and installed it to my SD card using FBI. I'm wondering if there's a way for me to get the save file from the cart onto the SD card for use with the CIA install.

The CIA install doesn't appear in Checkpoint for save backups at all.

You would need to use JKSM or checkpoint to first extract the decrypted save from your cart. You would then start the cia game till you can save so its got a dummy file on hand. Once thats done you would then run the save manager again to inject the cart save to the digital copy.

I remember there being a official app for doing that, forgot the name. I'm pretty sure it worked even on games that weren't on the eshop too.
