Common Questions

What happens when I export my saves?

You will be emailed an export file of your saved links. Check your inbox for this link; it may take a few hours for larger accounts.

What is contained in the export file?

Your export file will include links (URLs) of your saved items. The export does not extract the text of saved links. Additionally, the export does not contain tags or highlights.

Can I export only a select number of items?

This export tool will provide you with an HTML file of your saves, archive and favorites. It's not possible to export only a set of items, but you'll find them all in your export file.

Do I need to create backups of my saves?

Pocket stores your account in the cloud, so your items are available on any device, any time. Because Pocket uses the cloud, you don't need to create backups of saved items. However, you may wish to have a backup of your saves on your computer or hard drive if you prefer to keep an additional copy.

Can I use this file to import into another Pocket account?

Our importer tools sadly cannot import a Pocket export file. However, you can open the export file and hand-select links you wish to re-save to another Pocket account.

I did not receive an export file to my email inbox. What should I do?

Please copy the export ID from your request and email Pocket Support for assistance.
