Import and export

Importing in the web app

Open the library's ⋯ menu and choose Import bookmarks…. There are two ways in:

• HTML file: export your bookmarks from Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Edge as an HTML file and upload it (up to 20 MB). Each browser folder becomes a collection.
• Paste URLs: one URL per line. Markdown links such as [Docs](https://docs.example.com) and lines like Title - https://… keep their titles. Duplicates and lines that aren't http or https links are left out.

You see a summary before anything is saved, and you can choose a collection to import into. Bookmarks you already have are skipped, so importing the same file twice is safe.

With Privacy Mode on, bookmarks and folder names are encrypted on your device before upload. The vault has to be unlocked first; nothing is sent while it is locked.

Importing elsewhere

• The browser extension imports straight from your browser's bookmarks and accepts pasted lists.
• The iPhone and iPad app imports pasted lists and browser HTML files from the Files app.

Exporting

• Web app: choose Export bookmarks from the library's ⋯ menu or the command palette. You get a JSON file with your bookmarks, tags and collections. With Privacy Mode on, the file is built on your device from decrypted data, and the export stops if any bookmark can't be decrypted rather than leave it out silently.
• Browser extension: Export library (JSON) on the Sync tab downloads the same JSON file. Export to browser bookmarks copies your library into a Bookmark Minder folder in your browser, one sub-folder per collection, and replaces that folder each time.
• iPhone and iPad app: export your library as JSON.

Exported files contain your bookmarks unencrypted. Keep them somewhere private. Export is free on every plan.
