Import all your ChatGPT saved memories into MemoryPlugin instantly using the browser extension’s sync feature.

This imports ChatGPT’s “saved memories” - the personal information ChatGPT remembers about you, not your chat conversation history.

What You Need

• MemoryPlugin Browser Extension installed
• ChatGPT account with saved memories
• MemoryPlugin account (signed in)

How to Import

1. Open ChatGPT

   Go to ChatGPT in your browser where the extension is installed

2. Open Settings

   Click Settings from your profile menu

3. Go to Personalization

   Click on the “Personalization” tab

4. Manage Memories

   Click “Manage memories” to see your saved memories

   
5. Find the Sync Button

   Look for the “Sync Memories” button with the MemoryPlugin logo

   
6. Click Sync

   Click the button - it will show “Syncing…” while importing

   
7. Wait for Completion

   The sync typically takes a couple minutes depending on how many memories you have. Keep this browser tab open and don’t navigate away - closing the tab or using ChatGPT will interrupt the sync.

What Happens During Sync

• All your ChatGPT memories are copied to MemoryPlugin
• No duplicates are created if you run sync multiple times
• The sync runs in the browser - don’t close the tab or navigate away
• Imported memories go to your “General” bucket by default

After Import

1. Check your dashboard - Go to memoryplugin.com/dashboard to see your imported memories
2. Organize if needed - Move memories to different buckets for better organization
3. Use across platforms - Your ChatGPT memories now work with Claude, Gemini, and other AI platforms

Common Issues

Don't see the Sync button?

• Make sure the browser extension is installed and enabled
• Refresh the ChatGPT page
• Check you’re in Settings > Personalization > Manage memories
• Try logging out and back into both ChatGPT and MemoryPlugin

Sync seems stuck?

• Large memory collections may take several minutes
• Check your MemoryPlugin dashboard to see if memories are appearing
• You can safely try clicking sync again - it won’t create duplicates

Memories not showing in dashboard?

• Refresh your dashboard page
• Make sure you’re signed into the correct MemoryPlugin account
• Wait a few more minutes - processing can take time
