# Back up your cards and bring them from other apps

The cards are yours and you can take them wherever you like: to a file on your computer, to another phone or out of Kardpal.

## Export to a file

In Settings, under Backup, tap "Export". Kardpal downloads a .json file with the name, code, format, colour, notes, labels and saved shops of every card. It works without an account.

## Import when you need it

With "Import" you pick the file and the cards come back into the app. Handy for moving them to a new phone without creating an account.

## From Catima or a spreadsheet

Kardpal also reads Catima's CSV export and any CSV file with name and code columns. If you keep your cards in a spreadsheet, save it as CSV and import it.

## From Stocard or another app

If your old app has no export, add the cards with a screenshot of the code: Kardpal reads it from the image.

## Free version limit

Without Premium you can keep up to 20 cards. If the file has more, the import stops and Kardpal tells you.
