I understood it was Google-only, great to be mistaken about it. Still, the app should also support that geojson importation format too, there shouldn’t be a need for external tools, SPECIALLY since it’s what Google Takeout gives you, this very much should be a feature of the app.

Now that this project exists, I’m sure it’d be relatively trivial to implement in the app

I doubt the actual “feature” is much more than a single line that tells GDAL to translate it from one format to the next, so the real thing here is the convenience of having a webpage that provides this special case as a service. Geojson is easy to read in essentially every language now, so this shouldn’t have been hard to do even before this website.
