Structure of the exported data
When you choose the data period and data format in the app and export your diary data, a compressed file named "Diaries.zip" is created. When you extract it, your entries are organized into folders by date.
Example folder structure:
- 2024-01-20/
- 2024-01-20.html (HTML)
- 2024-01-20.txt (TXT)
- image.png (photos attached to the entry)
Features of each file format
The two available formats have the following characteristics. Choose the one that fits your purpose.
1. HTML (view in a browser)
A format you open in a computer browser such as Chrome or Safari.
Features: You can look back on your diary with a design close to the app's. Photos are displayed together with the text.
Best for: Reading your diary on a computer.
2. TXT (plain text)
The simplest format, with no decoration.
Features: It can be opened by any software and is least likely to have character-encoding issues. Photos are saved separately in the folder.
Best for: Moving your entries to a blog service or processing the data.
