Extract text from MBP files
To convert your MBP file to another format, you need Amazon Kindle or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Metadata & Project File" file type, you need software like Amazon Kindle or a similar tool.
The .MBP file extension is shared by three distinct but common data formats, creating significant confusion for users. Most frequently, it represents Mobipocket Notes, a sidecar file generated by Amazon Kindle devices and apps. These files store user data - such as bookmarks, annotations, and the 'last page read' position - associated with a primary ebook file (like AZW3 or MOBI). They are strictly metadata containers and cannot be opened or converted into a readable book on their own; they must accompany the actual ebook file.
In industrial automation contexts, .MBP refers to a Project File created by Modbus Poll. These files contain critical register definitions, connection settings, and polling configurations for testing Modbus slaves. Engineers often need to convert the data captured within these sessions into CSV (Excel) or TXT for analysis, documentation, or compliance reporting, as the raw project file requires the proprietary software to view.
Finally, older iOS backups created by Apple iTunes utilize .MBP files as renamed SQLite databases. Users recovering data from iPhone backups often encounter these and struggle to view the contents. Because they are standard databases under the hood, they can often be renamed to SQLITE or converted to SQL and CSV to extract contacts, messages, or app data without restoring the full backup.

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our MBP converter.
