Your handwriting follows you across every device
Once sync is set up, switching phones, tablets, or laptops doesn't mean losing your latest notes, and losing a device no longer means losing what you wrote on it.
What happens if you edit the same note on two devices at once
Most apps save locally first and sync afterward, so a brief internet outage during editing doesn't erase anything. But if the same note is edited offline on two devices at the same time, some apps keep both versions as a conflict for you to resolve rather than silently picking one, so it's worth checking for a conflict notice after a rare double-edit.
Frequently Asked Questions
If the internet drops during sync, is my note lost?
No β most apps save your edits to the device first and sync once a connection returns, so what you wrote doesn't disappear immediately.
What should I check if sync isn't working?
Check, in order, whether you're signed in, whether you have an internet connection, and whether you have enough storage space; if it still doesn't sync, try restarting the app or tapping manual sync.
