How does syncing across devices work?

I tried to keep the syncing as simple as possible. All data is first encrypted on the device using the user's key and then pushed and saved in the server db.

When you login from another device your data is fetched and decrypted and shown to you.

This looks really cool! Any plans to offer one time payment as an alternative to subscriptions? Also heads up clicking login on your main website didn't work for me - I had to use signup to go to app.notesnook.com and then switch to the login modal

Is it $4.49[1] or $6.99[2]? $6.99 screenshot is from live editor. [1] https://i.imgur.com/I1irh9a.png [2] https://i.imgur.com/c5hz4eq.png

Whoops. My bad. It's 4.49 dollars. Fixing it right now. Thanks for trying it out

Whoops. Good catch. Fixed it right now.

As for one-time subscription, no unfortunately not. I personally don't think it's sustainable because we'll be rolling out releases often. The $4.49 subscription gives us a good breathing room and support to work on more features. In return our users get new features and bug fixes very fast.

Yes, I can reproduce it too. Thanks for letting me know. I'll be fixing this tomorrow.

How does this handle conflicting offline writes?
