To All Growin Users
Thank you for using Growin.
We would like to inform you that Growin will be discontinued on September 30, 2026.
We sincerely apologize for the sudden announcement and for any inconvenience this may cause.
With the discontinuation of the service, we would like to inform you about how the records you have accumulated on Growin will be handled going forward. As this is important information, please be sure to review the following.
◼️ Your Growin Data
Growin has not previously offered a feature to export records—such as downloading them—outside of the system.
However, we've prepared an export feature specifically for the service shutdown so you can download your data in JSON format. If you'd like to keep a copy of your data, please use this feature before the export deadline.
* Note: JSON files are primarily a file format used for exchanging data between systems and applications, and are not an easily readable, table-based format like Excel. Please be aware in advance that a separate conversion tool may be required in order to view or make use of the data. Please also note that we make no guarantees whatsoever regarding the completeness, accuracy, usefulness, fitness for purpose, or compatibility with other services of the exported data, and we accept no responsibility for it. Any use, processing, conversion, or other handling of the exported data shall be carried out at your own responsibility.
<Export Scope and Deadline>
Of the data you have posted, you may export items related to posts and photos. The export function is available until September 30, 2026.
Please see below for how to export your data.
1. Open "My Page"
2. Click the gear icon ("Settings") in the upper right
3. Select "Export Data"
4. The JSON file will be exported automatically. A screen will appear asking where to save it—please choose your preferred method, such as sending it to your PC via "Files" or "Email."
If you would like to save photos from the exported data:
- After completing the 4 steps above, open the exported file
- Copy the URL found in the "url" field
- Paste that URL into your web browser and search
- Once the image appears, save it
- Note: Videos are not included in the export.
*Note: Once the deadline has passed, you will no longer be able to export your data. If you wish to export your data, please be sure to do so before the deadline.
◼️ After the Service Ends
After the service discontinuation on September 30, 2026, you will no longer be able to log in to Growin, and you will not be able to view your posts, photos, or other records within the app. User data will be appropriately deleted after a certain period, in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

◼️ In Closing
Growin was launched in October 2024 out of a desire to "support the growth of everyone who works hard at sports."
The records of practice, the frustrations and joys of competition, small moments of growth, and big goals—each and every record you have left on Growin is filled with the story of your own personal challenge.
If we have been able to accompany you, even in some small ways, during those precious moments, and to support your challenges even a little, nothing would make us happier. The entire Growin team is deeply grateful for your support in helping us build and grow Growin together.
We sincerely hope that you will continue to enjoy sports in your own way and keep pursuing your challenges going forward. Thank you very much for using Growin.
The Growin Team
