GUIDE

Import from Chrome to Step.

Move your bookmarks, passwords, and history in under two minutes. Your Chrome stays untouched.

About 2 minutes

Steps

  1. Open Step's onboarding flow

    On first launch, Step asks if you want to import data. If you skipped, open Settings → Import data.

  2. Pick Chrome as the source

    Step detects Chrome installs on your Mac. Pick the profile you want to import from.

  3. Choose what to import

    Tick what you need: bookmarks, browsing history, passwords, autofill data. Extensions are not imported automatically, Chrome extensions install fresh from the Chrome Web Store inside Step.

  4. Confirm and wait

    Click Import. The process is local and quick, usually under 30 seconds for typical Chrome data.

  5. Verify and continue

    Open the sidebar to see your bookmarks. Open the password manager (Settings → Passwords) to see your imported credentials.

About passwords

Imported passwords are stored in Apple Keychain, the same vault Safari uses. They never leave your Mac.

Importing from other browsers

Step also imports from Safari, Firefox, Brave, Edge, and Arc. The flow is the same, pick the source on the import screen.
