Each app can bring in what you already have from the app you’re leaving. Start with the export from your old app, then follow the guide for the Wells Code app you’re moving to.
| Moving to | From | Guide |
|---|---|---|
| Orbit | Things 3, OmniFocus, Todoist, Apple Reminders, or any spreadsheet saved as CSV (TickTick, Notion, Excel, Numbers, Google Sheets) | Import from another task app |
| Echo | Day One, or Apple’s Journal app | Bringing a journal in |
| Beacon | Any reader that exports OPML: Reeder, NetNewsWire, Feedly, Inoreader, Feedbin and more | Import and export OPML |
| Watchlist | Your YouTube subscriptions, from Google Takeout | Following channels |
| Circle | Nothing to import: Circle works with the people already in Apple Contacts | Circle and Apple Contacts |
Before you start
- Keep your original export until you’ve checked the result. Importers marked Beta are new, and every app stores things a little differently.
- Import on one device. What you import syncs to your other devices through your own iCloud account, like anything else you add.
- Importing again is safe. Each importer skips what’s already there, so an updated export adds only what’s new. Apple Reminders lists can be imported again too.
- Your files stay on your device. Exports are read by the app itself. Nothing is uploaded to Wells Code.
- Importing works during the free trial and with any plan.
If your app isn’t listed
Many apps can export a spreadsheet, and Orbit can import any CSV, matching its columns to Orbit’s. For anything else, write to us with the app you’re moving from. We read every message, and we can often help you move without retyping.
