There are a few ways to transfer chats:

1. Cursor Chat Transfer (extension) recommended

- Export/import chats between workspaces and devices
- Chats show up in Cursor’s native UI
- Open VSX: [Open VSX Registry](https://open-vsx.org/extension/ibrahim317/cursor-chat-transfer)

1. Manual transfer (if you need all data)

- Copy the Cursor folders to the new device:
  - macOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Cursor/User/workspaceStorage`

- Important: your project paths must match
