Research direction
Start by locating the existing keybind import/export flow and the settings stored in Defaults and the UserDefaults plist. Trace how live settings are exposed through the UI, then define a configuration format that covers all settings and verify that an export can be imported into another Loop instance with equivalent behavior.

Description
Feature Request Description
Users should be able to import and export all of Loop’s settings, including everything stored in Defaults, to easily transfer their configuration between instances. Currently, they can only import/export keybinds.

No response
Additional Context
It could be useful to expose all of Loop’s live settings via a config file, rather than only through the UI and the UserDefaults plist.
