+
+1. Press the `+` action button in the right bottom corner and select "Import Profile"
+2. Select an [exported Cwtch profile file](/docs/profiles/exporting-profile) to import
+3. Enter the [password](/docs/profiles/create-a-profile#a-note-on-password-protected-encrypted-profiles) associated with the profile

+
+Once confirmed, Cwtch will attempt to decrypt the provided file using a key derived from the given password. If successful

+
+:::note
+
+While a profile can be imported onto multiple devices, currently only one version of a profile can be in-use across all devices at any one time.
+
+Attempts to use the same profile across multiple devices may result in availability issues and messaging failures.
