How to export your Huckleberry data and move it to another app

Step 1: export your data from Huckleberry

1. Open the Huckleberry app and tap the child profile icon in the menu bar.
2. Scroll down and tap Export tracking data as CSV.
3. Tap Got it! Email it. Huckleberry sends a download link to the email address on your account.
4. Open that email on your iPhone and download the file. It is a .csv file and it lands in the Files app, usually in Downloads.

The link works for 24 hours. If it expires, repeat the steps and Huckleberry sends a new one. The file holds everything you logged for that child, including sleep, feeds and nappy (diaper) changes. Each child profile exports its own file.

These steps follow Huckleberry's own help article, Can I export my data from the app? If a label on your screen differs, trust the app: Huckleberry is the authority on its own export.

Step 2: import the file into Nova Baby

1. Install Nova Baby from the App Store. It is free and needs an iPhone on iOS 26 or later.
2. During setup, tap Import from Huckleberry when Nova offers it. If you are already set up, open Settings and tap Import data.
3. Check Interpret timestamps in. Huckleberry's file stores clock times without a time zone, so pick the zone you were in when you logged. It defaults to your iPhone's zone.
4. Tap Choose CSV file and pick the export.
5. Read the Import complete report: the number of events added, the date range, a count by type, skipped duplicates, and any skipped rows with the reason for each.

If the result is not what you expected, tap Undo import on the report. It removes every event from that import and nothing else.

What comes across

Nova reads every row of the file. Nothing is silently dropped: a row is either imported, counted as a duplicate, or listed as skipped with a reason.

What happens after the import

• The next sleep window uses your history. Nova learns from the last 14 days of sleep, so with a recent export the first estimate already reflects your baby, not only their age. How the prediction works.
• Charts fill in. The day graph, the balance of night sleep and naps, and night wakings cover the whole imported range.
• Your records stay on your iPhone. Nova works without an account. Sign in with Apple or Google only if you want cloud backup or to share the log with a partner.

Running both apps for a week

You do not have to switch in one go. Keep logging in Huckleberry, export again after a few days, and import the newer file into Nova. Entries that are already there are recognised and skipped, so a second import adds only what is new.

To look at the file before you install anything, open it in Nova Baby Rhythm. It reads the same CSV in your browser and draws your baby's sleep history. The file is not uploaded.

Getting your data back out of Nova

In Nova, Settings then Export data writes your full history to a CSV in the same format Nova imports, and hands it to the iPhone share sheet. It is free.

Huckleberry's help centre says the Huckleberry app does not currently import data, so a move away from Huckleberry is one way unless that changes.

Questions

Can you export data from Huckleberry?

Yes. Tap the child profile icon, scroll down and tap Export tracking data as CSV. Huckleberry emails a download link to the address on your account. The link works for 24 hours and each child profile exports its own file.

Which apps can import Huckleberry data?

Nova Baby imports a Huckleberry CSV free, during setup or later from Settings, on iPhone. Several other trackers publish their own import guides too, so check the app you are moving to. Nova's import shows a full report and can be undone.

Does it cost anything to import into Nova Baby?

No. Import, logging, charts, widgets and next-sleep-window predictions are free in Nova Baby, and you do not need an account. Nova Plus is an optional subscription for the Ask Nova assistant and AI Patterns.

Will importing twice create duplicates?

No. Nova recognises entries it already holds and skips them, and the report shows how many were skipped. That makes it safe to import a newer export later.

Can I import my data back into Huckleberry?

Not at the moment. Huckleberry's help centre says importing data into the Huckleberry app is not supported.

Can I import more than one child?

Nova Baby tracks one baby for now, so import the file for that child. Huckleberry exports each child profile as a separate file.

Does this work on Android?

Not yet. Nova Baby is on iPhone only. It is coming to Google Play, and you can leave an email on the homepage to hear when it lands.
