Share a session file to LapperSnapper from another app
Last updated Sep 25, 2026
On Android you don't have to open LapperSnapper and hunt for a file. Share it from Files, Google Drive, email, or a chat app and it goes straight into the app — handy when a teammate sends you a session.
Steps
- In the other app, select the file and tap Share.
- Choose LapperSnapper from the share sheet.
- LapperSnapper opens (or comes to the front) and imports the file — no file picker needed.
What happens next
- Driver account, or not signed in: a logger file (.xrk, .xrz, .drk, .ubx, .csv, .vbo) opens straight in analysis and is saved in Sessions. A GoPro video (.mp4 / .mov) goes through the usual video flow — see Import GoPro video with GPS telemetry.
- Team account: the session is added to your Team and the Assign drivers screen opens so you can pick whose session it is — see Tagging sessions to the right driver. Video can't be shared into a Team account.
- Either way, a Track conditions sheet follows — see Tag the track state after an import.
Good to know
- One file at a time. If you select several files in the other app, LapperSnapper won't appear in the share sheet.
- Share something the app can't read and you'll see That file type cannot be imported. If the file couldn't be copied across, you'll see Couldn't import that file.
- Some apps label files in a way that keeps LapperSnapper off the share list. If it isn't there, save the file to your phone and use Import → Choose a file instead.
- Android only, for now. On iPhone there's no share or "Open in" option for LapperSnapper yet — save the file to the Files app, then use Import → Choose a file. The web app doesn't take shared files either.
