## How to Transfer 3DS Save Data to Citra
There are multiple ways to transfer 3DS save data to Citra in a usable form, but the important thing to note is that whatever tool used to get the save data off of the 3DS supports exporting _expanded_ save data. Save data lives in Citra's emulated SD card directories (`user/sdmc/Nintendo 3DS/000...0/000...0/title/[game-TID-high]/[game-TID-low]/data/00000001/`). The below tutorial uses [Checkpoint](https://github.com/BernardoGiordano/Checkpoint/releases), which is easy to install and use.

### threeSD (beta)
[threeSD](https://github.com/zhaowenlan1779/threeSD) is a tool written to help import data from your 3DS for Citra more conveniently. It is currently in early development, so problems may occur. Should that happen, report them in our [Discord](https://citra-emu.org/discord) server. Then, you can use an alternate way to dump your files such as Checkpoint.
Refer to threeSD [Quickstart Guide](https://github.com/zhaowenlan1779/threeSD/wiki/Quickstart-Guide) for importing your installed titles, updates, DLCs, save data, extra data, system files, etc. Note that you'll still need a hacked 3DS with GodMode9 to obtain your keys so that threeSD can decrypt the data on your SD card.
### Checkpoint
As the supported way of transferring save data, [Checkpoint](https://github.com/BernardoGiordano/Checkpoint) is easy to install and use.
#### Required tools
- A 3DS with [boot9strap](https://3ds.guide/) installed
- [Checkpoint](https://github.com/BernardoGiordano/Checkpoint/releases).
- SD card reader (preferred), or a way to use wireless file transfer
### Installing Checkpoint
#### Installing Checkpoint
1. Download Checkpoint from the link above.
2. For cia installation, transfer the cia file to the SD card and install it with a cia installer such as [FBI](https://github.com/Steveice10/FBI/releases). For Rosalina-based Homebrew Launcher, transfer the 3dsx file to `/3ds/` on the SD card. **Hax-based Homebrew Launchers are not supported by Checkpoint**.

### Transferring Save Data
#### Transferring Save Data
1. Open Checkpoint. If this is the first time launching Checkpoint, it may take a considerably longer than usual depending on the amount of installed titles.
2. Highlight the game you want to dump by navigating to it with the D-pad.
3. Press A and select `Backup` on the bottom screen. You will be prompted `Yes` or `No`. Select `Yes` by pressing A.
