Takeout Reports

See what's inside your Takeout

You ask Google for your archive, it takes days to arrive, and then ten ZIP files of twenty gigabytes each land on your computer. Now what? Takeout Reports opens them and tells you what's inside — without unzipping a thing.

Takeout Reports on macOS: the summary of an archive, with the headline figures on top and every service with data listed below, each with how many records it holds.

It reads the archive where it sits

No extracting, no copying, no duplicating: it reads each file directly inside the ZIP. It doesn't matter that the archive is 200 GB and you have thirty free on disk. Multi-part volumes are presented as a single tree, and if one is missing it tells you before handing you a report with holes in it.

It counts records, not files

A service can hand you three JSON files and still be empty. The report opens what's in there and counts what you actually have: messages, senders, labels, contacts, events, photos, albums, bookmarks, sites visited, actions Google recorded about you. When it could only measure part of a service, it says so instead of pretending it measured everything.

Offline, and you can check

On the Mac, the app has no network access permission among its entitlements, and the system wouldn't grant it even if the app asked. On Windows it makes no network requests and contains no code that connects — and you can check it: block it in Windows Firewall and it works exactly the same (the in-app help gives you the command). Your archive never leaves your computer, nothing is uploaded, and everything works the same with Wi-Fi off. No analytics either, no identifiers, no account to create.

What you'll find

The report covers every service your archive brings, and explains the ones Google declared but sent back empty.

Mail and Groups

Messages, distinct senders, Gmail labels, years covered and how many carry an attachment.

Google Photos

Photos and videos counted separately, albums, year folders, edited copies, tagged people, and how many photos ended up with no date or no coordinates.

My Activity

How many actions Google kept, which product most of them came from, and how far back they go.

And the rest

Drive, Chrome, Contacts, Calendar, YouTube, Tasks, Maps and whatever else your archive brings.

Browse the whole archive, read-only

Beyond the figures, you can walk the archive service by service and open any file to see what it holds — a photo's metadata JSON, a calendar entry, an activity log. It is read from inside the ZIP, so nothing is written to disk.

The Takeout Reports explorer: the list of files of a service and, on the right, the contents of a photo's metadata JSON read straight from the archive.

Free, and staying that way

The full report and browsing are free forever, with no size limit and no cap on services. Looking at what you have is not something we charge for.

Coming later

Paid features will come later for getting data out and transforming it: batch export, repairing photo metadata, and searching the whole archive. None of that is in this version.

New help, better accessibility, faster

  • Full in-app help with search: how to request your archive from Google step by step, how to read the report, how to explore, and how to check for yourself that the app never connects to anything.
  • The welcome screen explains where to start if you don't have your archive yet.
  • Errors are explained in your language, and a ZIP that isn't a Google Takeout no longer gives an empty report.

Windows 1.0.1.0

September 25, 2026

Found mail? That part is Mbox Viewer's

When the Takeout Reports report finds mail in your archive it doesn't just count it: it says 8,763 messages and offers to open them. Reading that mailbox is the job of Mbox Viewer, our other app — the same MBOX file, on Mac and on Windows. That's why the two live in the same place.
