Import from another browser
Bring bookmarks, history, passwords and open tabs from Chrome, Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, Opera, Arc, Helium, Firefox or Zen.
Luma reads your data straight from the other browser on this PC. Nothing is uploaded anywhere, and the other browser stays as it is.
What Luma can bring
| Browser | Bookmarks, history, open tabs | Passwords |
|---|---|---|
| Google Chrome | Directly | From a file you export from Chrome |
| Microsoft Edge | Directly | From a file you export from Edge |
| Brave, Vivaldi, Opera, Helium | Directly | Directly, where that browser allows it; otherwise from an exported file |
| Arc | Directly, with your spaces and pinned tabs as bookmarks | Directly, where Arc allows it; otherwise from an exported file |
| Mozilla Firefox, Zen | Directly | Directly, unless you set a primary password |
- Luma reads the browser’s main profile on this PC.
- Bookmarks go into a folder named after the browser, such as “Google Chrome” or “Mozilla Firefox”.
- History brings the most recent 50,000 visits.
- Open tabs aren’t opened straight away: they’re saved as a session that you open from Settings › General › Sessions (see Closed tabs and sessions).
Import from a browser
- Open Settings › General (Ctrl+,).
- Under Import data, pick the browser from the list. Only browsers found on this PC are listed.
- Tick what to bring: Bookmarks, History, Passwords, Open tabs.
- Choose Import. When it’s done, Luma says how many bookmarks, history entries, passwords and tabs it brought.
If Luma says that the browser’s data is in use, close that browser completely and choose Import again.
The first-run setup offers the same import in its Your data step. Importing the same browser twice brings everything again, so you may get duplicate bookmarks: the bookmarks page can find and remove them (see Bookmarks).
Passwords from Chrome and Edge
Chrome and Edge lock their saved passwords to their own app, so no other browser can read them. Export them to a file from Chrome or Edge, then import the file into Luma:
- In Chrome, open Password Manager › Settings › Export. In Edge, open Settings › Passwords, then the … menu, then Export.
- In Luma, open Settings › General and, under Import data, choose Passwords (CSV)….
- Pick the file you exported. Luma says how many passwords it imported.
- Delete the exported file.
Passwords (CSV)… also reads password files exported by Brave, Opera, Firefox, Bitwarden, 1Password and others. The Passwords page has the same import, under Import CSV…: see Passwords.
Firefox passwords are read directly. If you protected them with a primary password, Luma can’t read them: export them from about:logins in Firefox and import the file with Passwords (CSV)….
Bookmarks from a file
Any browser can export its bookmarks to an HTML file. In Settings › General › Import data, choose HTML… and pick the file (in the first-run setup: Import a bookmarks file (HTML)…). The bookmarks go into a folder named “Imported”.
