+===== Importing Bookmarks from External Sources  =====
+Kurviger allows you to import any GPX file with waypoints to be used as bookmarks. Common examples of bookmarks that users would like to import are their own collection from for example Basecamp, passes from Passknacker or Alpenrouten, or speed cameras (please note that showing speed cameras might not be legal in your country, please double check, before using them).
+If you go to the ''Menu'', select ''Bookmarks'' and select ''Import'', select the file you want to import.
+It is important to note, that if you import huge amounts of POIs, the map might feel a bit slow on high zoom-levels, you can choose to not show the bookmarks if not need them and the map behaves normal. Also when importing large amounts of bookmarks, you should be aware, that it can be complicated to manage them. Therefore, I recommend to only import bigger amounts of POIs, if it wouldn't be easier to import them as route overlay (''Menu'', ''Route'', ''Import'', these POIs can be easily deleted and don't mix with your other bookmarks).
+===== Exporting Bookmarks =====
+It is easy to export your bookmarks as GPX file. This allows you to use your bookmarks in external systems or to back them up. Go to the ''Menu'', ''Bookmarks'', ''Export''.
 ===== Share your Bookmarks with other Motorcycle Enthusiasts =====
