Importing data

Add data to your timeline by importing it. There are a few things to note when it comes to importing data:

• Imports create a copy of your data. For large datasets, be mindful of available space on the disk where your timeline repository is. Timelinize does not yet measure available space to protect you from depleting disk space.

• Keep your original source data. This application is still in development, so you may have to wipe your timeline and start over in a future update.

• Timelinize does not modify, rename, or delete your files in any way. Your data is only read, never changed or deleted.

• Data is processed on-device. Your data is processed locally/internally, not sent to any third party services.

• Backups are still necessary. Timelinize is an archive management tool, not a backup utility. Please back up your timeline(s) with a proper backup tool. We recommend Backblaze and restic.
