Switch from Nara Baby to Moonlet
Export your data from Nara Baby, import it into Moonlet, and keep your whole history.
Nara Baby has become subscription-only, and without a subscription its export is the one thing left to do. That export is all Moonlet needs: it reads the file and brings in your feeds, sleep, diapers, pumping, solids, medicine, growth, vaccines and milestones.
Moonlet is a baby tracker for iPhone (iOS 18 or later), made for two parents and anyone who helps. It's coming to the App Store.
What to expect
- Everything Nara did for free stays free in Moonlet.
- Children you bring over from Nara Baby stay free.
- Nothing is ever deleted, and export always includes everything.
Step 1: export from Nara Baby
- Open Nara Baby and go to the main Activity screen.
- Tap the picture next to your child's name.
- Tap Export Data.
- In the share sheet, choose Save to Files and save it somewhere you'll find it, like On My iPhone.
Nara Baby exports one child per file. If you track more than one, export each of them. If Nara Baby's screens look different by now, look for its export option and save the file to Files in the same way.
Step 2: import into Moonlet
- Install Moonlet, sign in with Apple, Google or an email link, and create your family. Then choose Import child data from Nara Baby. Already using Moonlet? Go to Settings → Family & caregivers, tap Import from…, then Nara Baby.
- Tap Choose the exported file and pick the file you saved.
- Check what's in the file. Moonlet reads your child's name and birth date from it and counts each kind of entry. Nothing is saved until you import, so you can fix details first.
- Tap Import. Your history appears in Moonlet's History, day by day, and you carry on logging from Home.
If your partner has already set Moonlet up, ask them for an invite instead: only one of you needs to import. Tracking more than one child? Import each child's file in turn. If you keep using Nara Baby for a while, export again later and import the new file. Importing the same file twice doesn't duplicate entries.
What comes across, and what doesn't
Entries keep the name of whoever logged them in Nara Baby, as plain text. Those people aren't added to your family automatically; you can invite them from the import screen.
No photos come across. Nara Baby's export doesn't include them. In Moonlet you can add photos to entries from now on. Anything else in the file that Moonlet can't use is listed for you before you import.
Offers for families switching
- Imported children stay free through December 31, 2026. A free family normally tracks one child. Each child you bring over from Nara Baby raises that by one, up to four per family, so twins and siblings never meet a paywall. The child's file needs a real history: about 50 entries over at least two weeks, from before Nara Baby went subscription-only on October 8, 2026. Each Nara Baby child can be brought over once.
- Founding Family is a special lifetime offer for Moonlet Plus, shown after you import from Nara Baby and available through December 31, 2026. Plus is yours: it covers the families you're a parent in, and everyone in them.
Free and Moonlet Plus
Logging is free, and always will be. Moonlet Plus adds extras on top, and one purchase covers the whole family. The App Store shows the current prices. If prices go up, you keep the price you signed up at for as long as you stay subscribed.
