@N1kname 1.7.5 is out today, and it carries the importer (BIG-399). It’s in Settings → Backup & Restore → Import Arc Timeline 3 Backups. Point it at the folder holding your copies of the backup sets, the ones you kept outside iCloud, rather than the live iCloud Drive › Arc App folder, which has moved on since you took them. The folder needs to be somewhere the Files app can reach: a copy placed in iCloud Drive under its own name works, or anywhere else Files can browse. It reads the backup files directly, so the old app stays out of the loop. Before anything is written it shows “Found N backup sets with M weeks of data”: N should be the sets you copied, and Cancel is there if it isn’t. It brings across only history from before Arc Timeline 4 started recording on your phone, so the missing years fall inside it.
A decade of history takes an hour or two: keep the phone on charge and Arc on screen until it finishes (it pauses if you switch to another app or lock the phone), and if it’s interrupted, Resume Import picks up where it left off. Recording is off while it runs, so today gets a data gap the length of the import. Running it again over the same folder is safe. The rollout is phased, so tap Update in the App Store to get it today. Release notes: Arc Timeline 4 (1.7.5) release notes — post back with how it goes.
