How to move your cycle history from Clue to Barkat

Clue lets you download everything you've tracked, and Barkat can read that download. Barkat brings in your period days, spotting, cervical fluid, and basal body temperatures. Other things you tracked in Clue, like pain or mood, stay in Clue for now.

1. Ask Clue for your data

In the Clue app, tap the menu in the top right corner, then Settings, then Download my data, then Request data. Clue emails a download link to the address on your Clue account. The link stops working after 72 hours, so download it soon after it arrives.

2. Open the zip

The download is a zip file locked with a password, and Clue sends the password in a second email. Open the zip with that password. Inside, find the file called measurements.json. If your phone won't open a locked zip, open it on a computer and send measurements.json to yourself.

3. Bring it into Barkat

Open Barkat's cycle tab and tap bring in from another app. Choose Clue, tap choose the file, and pick measurements.json. Barkat shows what it found before adding anything. Tap add it to my cycle, or cancel. Days you've already logged in Barkat stay the way you logged them, and undo takes the whole import back.

Keeping it private

Barkat reads the file on your phone and never uploads it. If you turn on sync, your cycle is locked on your phone with your six-word phrase before it leaves, like everything else in Barkat. Once it's in, you can delete the export from your phone or computer.
