Saving and sync

The installed app saves on your device and syncs when it can. In a browser tab, your work saves to your account directly.

The Hub’s features play in its own demo, not on this page.

Every Saving and sync feature

When the same thing was changed in two places, sync merges what it can and asks you to choose only where both changed the same field.
- Open the review from the switcher and pick a version.
Not in the demo. Needs a second device editing at once.
See every device signed in to your account, when each was last active, and whether this one is synced.
- Account › Devices.
All 1 in Devices
- Sign out a device you no longer use. You confirm with its name and last activity; what's on it stays there.
  Devices › Sign out beside the device, then Sign out device.
A note or workout you're in the middle of survives a reload, a closed tab and another tab's changes; nothing is overwritten without you choosing.
- Come back to the app and carry on where you were.
Not in the demo. Shows for writing left unsaved when the app closed.
Each change is sent until the server has it, never twice and never to the wrong account or shared home. A busy or refused server keeps your work waiting.
- Nothing to do: sync runs when the app opens, after changes, and when you're back online.
Not in the demo. Asks Apollo’s server, which the tour site doesn’t reach.
A reopened app shows its last page straight away while its data loads, and anything you change meanwhile is saved.
- Nothing to do; it's how every app opens.
Not in the demo. Shows in Alluvium, Hearth, Cambium or Talus, not in the Hub.
Changes made in the previous version of Apollo that never reached the server are found in this browser and sent once, when you ask.
- If any are found, Account offers to send them.
Not in the demo. Shows with more than the demo holds.
The installed app keeps each app's data in its own database in the browser, separate for each account and shared home, and saves even offline.
- Nothing to do; if the database is slow to start, the app says so and then opens.
Not in the demo. Shows in the installed app, not in a browser tab.
If the device's database can't start, the app says so and keeps your saved work, and can restore it from your account.
- Follow the message; nothing saved is thrown away.
Not in the demo. Shows in the installed app, not in a browser tab.
Account's Sync and storage sheet lists what each app hasn't synced yet, your devices and this device's storage.
- Tap the sync pill at the top of Account, or Sync and storage under Your data.
- Sync now opens the first app with something waiting; a failed one has Try again.
Each app's mark shows sync at a glance: a badge when changes are waiting or something needs you, a thin ring while a slow sync runs, nothing when all is well.
- Tap the mark to see the status line and Sync now.
- A change in state is said once, in a short message.
All 4 in Sync status on the app's mark
- When sync needs something from you, the mark shows !, one message says what, and the fix is at the top of the switcher.
  Tap the mark and follow the fix.
  Not in the demo. Asks Apollo’s server, which the tour site doesn’t reach.
- Offline, changes wait with a count on the mark, and sync once you're back.
  Keep working; the badge clears when they're sent.
- Signed out, the mark and the switcher say your work is on this device only.
  Sign in to sync it to your account.
- The switcher's sync row has Sync now to send waiting changes straight away.
  Tap the app's mark, then Sync now.
How much space Apollo uses here, whether the browser may clear it, and a button to ask it to keep it.
- Sync and storage › This device. Tap Keep on this device; Export makes a copy.
The installed app keeps your data on the device and works offline. A browser tab keeps no copy: it reads and saves straight to your account.
- Install Apollo to work offline; any browser tab shows the same account.
