How to export your Maple data and switch before Dec 31

Part 1: Save your Maple data (about 20 minutes)

1. Find out whether your events already left Maple. If you had Maple+ calendar sync turned on, open Google Calendar on a computer and look under My calendars for one named “Maple”. If it’s there, those events are in your Google account and stay after Maple closes.
2. Download that calendar as a backup file. In Google Calendar go to Settings → Maple (left side) → Export calendar. You get an .ics file. Save it somewhere safe (Google’s steps).
3. Synced with Apple or Outlook instead? Check those apps. Open that calendar app and look for a recent event that came from Maple. If you find it, export the calendar (Mac: File → Export, Apple’s steps). We haven’t confirmed exactly what Maple leaves in Apple or Outlook, so check before you rely on it.
4. No sync? Screenshot your upcoming events. Go month by month through the rest of the season (practices, games, tournaments, school events) and take a screenshot of each.
5. Screenshot every list, chore chart, recipe and meal plan. Then paste the text into a note or doc too, because text is easier to rebuild from than pictures. Maple has no export for these.
6. Rescue your Maple family email. Messages Maple pulled from your Gmail or Outlook are still in that inbox. Anything sent to your Maple address exists only in Maple, so forward the ones you need to your own email.
7. Do one last pass before November 30. Anything added to Maple after your first pass exists only in Maple. Some families report an in-app shutdown date of November 30, so finish by then.

Part 2: Set up Farmark (about 15 minutes)

1. Start your 14-day free trial. Go to home.farmarkapp.com. It’s $2.99/month after your 14-day free trial, cancel anytime, and one subscription covers the whole household. A card is required, and nothing is charged today.
2. Connect Google Calendar. Choose your family calendars, plus the old “Maple” calendar in your Google account if you want those events. Farmark reads them and doesn’t change the originals.
3. Add team and school feeds. In TeamSnap, GameChanger, your league site or your school calendar, find Subscribe, iCal or Export to calendar, copy the link, and paste it into Add calendar → Use a calendar link or .ics file. Links refresh about every hour.
4. Add Apple (iCloud) or Outlook via a calendar link or .ics export. Use a share or publish link as a calendar link, or upload the .ics file you exported.
5. Upload your backup .ics file. If you didn’t connect Google, upload the .ics file you saved in Part 1 under the same menu.
6. Turn screenshots into events with Photo Import. Upload the calendar screenshots you took, or better yet the original practice schedule, tournament PDF or school flyer. Farmark drafts the events, and you review every date and time before saving.
7. Type in anything left over. Things like a dentist appointment or a carpool swap.
8. Bring the family in. Invite your partner, and put Farmark on a kitchen tablet or TV so everyone can see who’s driving to what.
9. Put lists somewhere else. Rebuild shopping lists, chores and recipes in Apple Reminders, Google Keep or a recipe app. Farmark doesn’t do those.
