Cloud Sync
Sliprail can synchronize supported settings and extension data across devices. Cloud Sync requires a signed-in account and a plan that includes synchronization.
Enabling Cloud Sync
For a new account with no cloud settings, Sliprail may enable synchronization automatically after sign-in. When you enable or re-enable Cloud Sync and existing data is present, Sliprail asks which source should take priority:
- Use Local Data - Upload this device's data and use it for conflicts
- Use Cloud Data - Download cloud data and use it for conflicts on this device
Choose carefully because the selected source replaces conflicting values. Data that does not conflict is preserved when possible.
Sync Settings
Open the Cloud Sync settings panel to control what is synchronized:
- Sync extension list - Synchronizes eligible installed extensions across devices
- Sync theme - Synchronizes the selected theme and eligible installed themes
- Per-extension sync - Each bundled extension that supports cloud data has its own switch
- Delete cloud data - When an extension's sync is disabled, its stored cloud data can be deleted separately
Only entries shown in this panel support extension data sync. Locally loaded unpacked extensions and themes remain local unless they are also installed through a supported synchronized source.
Sync Status
The Cloud Sync control shows the current state:
- Syncing - Data is being uploaded or downloaded
- Synced - The latest synchronization completed successfully
- Error - Select the retry icon to try the failed upload or download again
When the status is idle, select the sync icon to synchronize local and cloud data immediately.
Important Notes
- Disabling Cloud Sync does not automatically delete cloud data
- Re-enabling sync requires choosing which data source should take priority
- Individual extensions may apply additional privacy rules to the data they synchronize
