Overview

  • Code in the Google app (version 17.11.54.sa.arm64) references a two-part Gemini import tool, codenamed Robin Import.
  • The memory step has Gemini generate a prompt for another chatbot to summarize what it knows about you, which you then paste back into Gemini.
  • Chat history can be brought over by uploading exported conversations as .zip files with a size cap of about 5GB.
  • The workflow is a manual hand-off rather than a direct sync, and the feature is not live or guaranteed to ship.
  • Reports suggest this could lower switching costs for users of ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity, with 9to5Google noting possible copy‑paste errors and Anthropic already offering a similar import for Claude.
