    This is a save manager you can install as a CIA. This means no more booting into the homebrew menu and rebooting to import and export saves.

    Testing has shown that it doesn't appear to have any problems with any titles. Thanks to @Gocario, it will automatically delete any secure values.
    It can also export and import ExtData IF the title uses it.

    I've made it as simple as I can, while keeping the slot feature from my old save manager.
    When you select backup or restore, you will have to select or create a new slot. If you don't like the input screen, you can create the directories yourself inside the game's export folder.

    Save Data is exported to SD:/JKSV/Saves/[Title]/[Slot Dir]
    ExtData is exported to SD:/JKSV/ExtData/[Title]/[Slot Dir]
    System Save data is exported to SD:/JKSV/SysSave/
    Boss ExtData is exported to SD:/JKSV/Boss/
    Shared ExtData is exported to sd/JKSV/Shared/[ID]/[DIR]

    Tell me if you have any issues. I've tried my best to get everything 100%, but I'm not perfect.

    Your game must be started at least once for this to work. If you get a message saying "Couldn't open SaveArch!", it is probably because you haven't started the game and allowed to format and create it.

    The banner and icon were made by @Sgt. Lulz.

    A big thanks to @Shadowfied, @Phanton, @Sgt. Lulz, and @A_Random_Guy for risking their saves and testing.

    Latest build is from 3/25/2016. It fixes a major issue. Github is not up to date yet.
    You can download it here.
    Source is available here: https://github.com/J-D-K/JKSM. I'm far from a pro though, so I know some could probably be done better.

    The best thing about this is that I don't have to check titleids at 3dsdb. Great fucking job!

    Does this mean we also don't have to import secure value from a good save (not tampered with) anymore, like we have to do for Pokemon Shuffle or Animal Crossing?

    Pretty much.
    I did the tests with New Leaf, and it succeeded at wiping the secure value where SDF failed.
    10/10 it's ok

    Excellent, glad we have an open-source save manager channel. Now I wonder: Would it be possible to create some kind of in-app repo to download/upload save backups from various games based on their TitleID?

    Does this support system savedata?

    Also, please make secure value deletion optional

    This looks awesome, but what's the difference between this and savedatafiler?
