Things to Consider Before Importing #
- The desktop version of Things is only available on MacOS, therefore import from Things is available only on the MacOS version of the SingularityApp.
- Before importing, you need to install the Things app on the computer and update all the data that you want to import.
- Close the Things app while importing.
- SingularityApp provides import from two versions of Things: 3.12.5 and under; 3.12.6 and up. We did this because of the difference in the data storage structures.
How to Run an Import #
In the SingularityApp main menu, select File → Import → Import from Things.

Wait until the import is complete. All your tasks will be imported, including archived ones. The import can take a long time if you have a large database of tasks and projects in Things.
