Like most web browsers, Google Chrome lets you "bookmark" pages so you can easily find them again later. And if you have Chrome linked to your Google account, you can access those bookmarks on any device also running Chrome.

But if you need to move your bookmarks to another browser – or onto a device where you can't log into your Google account – Chrome offers an easy way to save, export, and import your bookmarks.
