Does Path Import upload my location data to any server?

No. Path Import operates entirely on-device within your browser using WebAssembly and the Origin Private File System (OPFS). No files, coordinates, or data ever leave your machine.

What backup formats does Path Import support?

Path Import supports Arc App exports (including Arc Export and Arc Previous Backups folders) and Moves App daily storyline JSON archives (such as json/daily/storyline).

Can I run Path Import completely offline?

Yes. Once the web application and SQLite WebAssembly runtime are loaded, you can disconnect from the internet and convert your backups completely offline.

How do I import the converted database into Path on iPhone?

Transfer the generated .db file to your iPhone using AirDrop, iCloud Drive, or the Files app. Then open Path on your iPhone, navigate to Settings → Data Management → Import Data, and select the file.
