Import

Take over lists, chores, recipes, events or the timetable from text, a photo or a screenshot.

Do you already have something elsewhere – in your phone notes, on a piece of paper, in a letter from school or as a screenshot? With Import, Hüsli reads it and turns it into separate entries. You check everything before anything is saved.

How it works

  1. Where the entries should go, tap Import (the places are listed below).
  2. Choose Paste a list, Photo / screenshot or With the assistant.
  3. Paste the text and tap Read it – or choose the photo. With the assistant, write what you want and tap Ask.
  4. Hüsli reads and shows what it found: “8 found – check, edit, tick”.
  5. Change what isn’t right and untick everything you don’t want.
  6. Tap Take all – or “Take 5” if you haven’t selected everything.

Where you find Import

  • Tasks: Import at the top – chores and to-dos, with person and How often.
  • Lists: the Import icon next to the list name – shopping and packing lists with quantities.
  • Calendar: the Import a letter or flyer icon – events from a school letter, an invitation or a flyer.
  • School: Photo of the timetable – the lessons for the selected child.
  • Meals › Recipe book: Import a photo or text – a cookbook page or a recipe card.
  • Birthdays and Contacts: Import at the top – e.g. a class or phone list.
  • Day-trip ideas: via + with Paste a list, Photo / screenshot or With the assistant.

Good to know

  • Nothing is saved before you check it. What is already in Hüsli is marked (e.g. “Already on the list”) and not ticked.
  • Photos are only read and not saved. A photo can also be a PDF; the language doesn’t matter.
  • Only parents can import – children can’t, and on a device with parental controls the button isn’t there.
  • Hüsli takes over at most 120 entries at a time. Notes after an entry, e.g. “(1h)”, are kept.
  • If Hüsli finds nothing, try a sharper photo or paste the text.
