Chrome also has a Bookmarks Bar for easy access to your favorites. While we\u2019re sure you\u2019re aware of all this already, do you know how to export them to a new device? Let us show you how.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Export Chrome bookmarks to another PC or Mac device<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Whether you\u2019re using Chrome on PC or Mac, the process remains the same. There are two different methods you can use, so we\u2019ll take you through them both. You can thank us later.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-154626 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2020\/12\/export-chrome-bookmarks-2_tj47i1.jpg\" width=\"460\" height=\"413\"><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The first method involves exporting bookmarks to a different device.
