I was able to export settings (less maps) and, on another tablet of identical make, model, and software configuration level (Android 10 and latest Osmand), import that settings file. The settings appeared correctly in Osmand in the "import" tablet.
I then attempted to import that same settings file into a tablet of different make and model, that was also Android 10 and latest Osmand. On the "import" tablet, in the "import settings" dialogue window, when I selected the aforementioned settings file, the import settings dialogue window sort of flashed briefly and there was an error message to the effect that the settings file that I pointed to dialogue box to could not be imported. Also, the settings that I wanted to import did not appear in Osmand in that "import" tablet. Hope that helps.
