# Import your Nara Baby history

Export your child's data from Nara Baby to Files. In Cami, open More › Settings › Import & Export, tap your child, then Import Data › Import from Nara Baby.

## Before you start

- Add your child in Cami first. Each import goes into one child’s history.
- Save Nara Baby’s file to the Files app on the iPhone where you use Cami.

## 1. Get the file from Nara Baby

These are the steps Cami shows on its Nara Baby import screen:

1. In Nara Baby, go to **Account** › **Family**.
2. Select your child, then tap **Export Data** at the bottom.
3. Save the file to Files.

Nara Baby’s own FAQ describes another way to the same button: on the main Activity screen, tap the avatar next to your child’s name, then **Export Data** ([Nara Baby app FAQs](https://nara.com/pages/nara-baby-app-faqs), checked 25 September 2026).

## 2. Import the file into Cami

1. Open **More** , **Settings** , **Import & Export**.
2. Under **By child**, tap the child the history belongs to.
3. Tap **Import Data**.
4. Under **Other apps**, tap **Import from Nara Baby**.
5. Tap **Choose File** and pick the file you saved.
6. Read the summary. It says how many entries came in, and which rows Cami skipped and why.

In Cami 1.2: open More › (your child)'s Data, then tap Import from Nara Baby.

The same screen opens from **More** , **Your Family** , **Children**: tap the child, then **Manage Data**. If you have just installed Cami, answer **Yes, I’m coming from another app** during setup and choose the file on **Bring your history**.

**Tip**

If you turned on **Face ID for sensitive actions** in **More** , **Settings** , **Confirm with Face ID** on this iPhone (a setting for family owners), Cami asks for Face ID before it imports.

Imported entries go into your child’s history for the whole family. Everyone in your family sees them on their own phone.

## What does not come across

- **Any other kind of row**, and a growth row with no measurement. Cami skips it and counts it in the summary.
- **Who logged each entry.** Every imported entry shows you under **Logged by**, because you ran the import.
- **A sleep with no end time.** It is skipped.

## A file with more than one child

A Nara Baby file can hold several children. When it does, Cami takes only the rows whose child name matches the name of the child you import into, and leaves the rest. Pumping rows, which Nara Baby does not tie to a child, always come across.

**Tip**

If a file with two children imports nothing but pumping, the names do not match. Make your child’s name in Cami the same as in Nara Baby, import, then change it back if you like.

A file with only one child imports whole, whatever the child is called.

## Import again without duplicates

Importing the same file twice adds nothing twice. If you edit an entry in Nara Baby and export again, the new import updates that entry in Cami instead of adding a second one.

## Troubleshooting

### Cami says the file doesn't look like an export from Huckleberry, Nara Baby or Cami

Choose the file exactly as Nara Baby saved it. A file you opened and saved again in a spreadsheet app can fail. Export again and import the new file. More help: [The import did not work](https://camibaby.com/help/import-failed).

### The summary says entries are for another child

The file holds more than one child, and those rows belong to a child with a different name. Import them into that child in Cami: tap **Import Data** again, choose that child, and import the same file.
