Hi Ryan, will removing the battery delete any of the downloaded apps and saved files?

Kivi Shapiro - Dec 24, 2017

I’m not Ryan, but I just did this process and the apps and files are all still there.

Hello, if anyone still has this leappad Ultra and wanted to purchase a new battery. I have found a retail store https://batteryclerk.com/ The price is reasonable, and I’m just waiting for the batteries to arrive.
