I really need help, i need to reset my phone, but I have either 773 tabs or 773 sessions saved in kiwiBrowser(NOT bookmarks) I only have 5 bookmarks.

[Username23453]

And I need to transfer the 773 to my desktop somehow, so i can review them there. I know about floccus, but its asking whether I want to use WebDAV, i dont know how to use that, & also its asking if i want to use my google drive. I was about to try this. But, i'm concerned on how this would work. I have desktop browser profiles connected to my google drive account, with saved history,sessions, bookmarks, & I'm concerned floccus might delete my kiwi stuff & move my desktop browser profile data to my kiwi browser. I need some help, urgently, a walkthrough or something. My phone is lagging extremely & serious other problems & I urgently need to reset the OS.
I've also tried "Kiwi Sync" extension, but it didnt work at all.
-Thank you.

Hello 👋

its asking whether I want to use WebDAV, i dont know how to use that

Then don't use it.

I have desktop browser profiles connected to my google drive account

To your drive account? Really? With floccus? Or are you simply syncing your browser via your google account?

In case of the latter, you should be fine to sync your tabs to google drive.

I'm concerned floccus might delete my kiwi stuff

Floccus allows you to specify to only sync stuff up without changing the local data in any way.

To rescue your tabs you should be able to

1. Install floccus on Kiwi
2. Set up a sync account to google drive (make sure to select that you want to sync tabs no bookmarks folder)
3. Trigger a push sync
4. Now your tabs should be in a file in google drive

Ah, they still haven't fixed that. Damn. Then you'll need to go a different route:

On some desktop browser:

1. Install floccus
2. Setup the sync account you would have setup on kiwi
3. Export your accounts to a json file
4. Transfer the json file to your phone
5. import the json file into floccus on kiwi

@marcelklehr , thanks! So i did all that, its not syncing my 695 tabs from kiwi, when i tell it to sync, the json file doesnt change at all. See screenshot. Does it only sync bookmarks? i thought it synced tabs or saved sessions too?

[marcelklehr]

the json file doesnt change at all

The JSON file is not supposed to get syned. You should look for a file called bookmarks.xbel in your google drive. That's where your tabs are in now.
