Move Period Tracker Data Safely
Move period tracker data with a backup-first habit.
Before switching trackers, make sure you understand what your export contains, where the file is stored, and how restore will work if local browser data is later cleared.
For privacy switchers who want to bring useful history forward without spreading sensitive files across more accounts or devices than needed.
What you can do in Lunara
- Preview imports before saving mappable cycle entries.
- Acknowledge same-date replacements before import changes existing entries.
- Make a password-protected backup after import and check that it works.
Before importing
Make a backup or export from the tracker you are leaving, then store that file somewhere you trust before opening it in Lunara.
Look at what the file contains. Exports can include dates, notes, symptoms, metadata, or other details you may not want to leave in downloads, email, or shared folders.
During import
Preview first. Lunara shows supported rows, issue counts, date ranges, and same-date replacement warnings before saving changes.
Import only runs in the real tracker. The safety PIN space is not an import target.
After import
Create a fresh password-protected backup after importing. Older backups may not include the moved history.
Delete or move temporary export files when you no longer need them, especially on shared devices or synced downloads folders.
FAQ
- Does import merge histories automatically?
- No. Lunara previews same-date replacements so existing entries are not quietly overwritten.
- What should I do after importing entries?
- Create and verify a password-protected backup so the imported history has a restore path.
