Reclaim your Tours and Collections from komoot in one click with this simple desktop app.
Building on komootGPX, komoot-takeout lets you backup all your Tours including Highlights and personal photos, as well as all public komoot Collections.
Consider this tool a stop-gap solution created in response to Komoot locking up our user data. It's not a replacement for the platform providing native one-click export. Be aware that Komoot may lock down their API at any time, breaking this tool. Backup your data now.
- One-click Tour downloads: Returns your GPX files with Highlights as points of interest and any personal photos
- Batch download: Download all of your Activities and Routes at once
- Custom download folder: Choose where to save your GPX files.
- Native desktop experience: Runs as a standalone desktop application
- Download public Komoot Collections: Backup all tracks in a single or multiple Collections via the public link, and all Collections of a user (e.g. komoot.com/user/123456789/collections/personal)
- Tons of undocumented 🐛: Please consult the Known Issues below and report new ones via Issues.
- Windows (.exe): ⬇️ komoot-takeout.exe ⬇️
- macOS (.app): ⬇️ komoot-takeout.app(macOS).zip⬇️
- Single Tour downloads (with login) result in an error. Recommended workaround: Download GPX file directly from Komoot.
- Collection Download Button becomes unclickable after downloading a collection. Workaround: Close komoot-takeout and re-open. You can paste multiple links or the link to the Collection overview (e.g. komoot.com/user/123456789/collections/personal) into the text box for batch fetching.
- On some Windows systems, you may see a Rectangle.op_Equality error in the logs. This is a known issue with PyWebView and doesn't affect functionality.
- If you have a firewall or antivirus, it might block the app from accessing the internet. Make sure to allow the app through your firewall.
- Windows Defender Smartscreen may block the launching of the program because it is unsigned. Click "More information" to execute anyway.
This project builds on the excellent komootGPX library by timschneeb, which provides the core functionality for downloading GPX tracks from Komoot. The desktop app provides a user-friendly interface for downloading your Komoot files without needing to use the command line. As it was coded in a weekend with generative AI, you may encounter errors and bugs.
- PyWebView for the desktop window framework
- Flask for the web framework
- Beautiful Soup for HTML parsing
- PyInstaller for executable packaging
This tool contains bugs due to being rapidly coded with the help of generative AI. Contributions are welcome. Please open an issue or a pull request.
The application creates a log file called komoot_exporter.log in the directory where you run the executable. This file contains detailed information if something goes wrong.
