# Cloud sync

> Sign in and enable cloud sync — your resumes are stored in the cloud, synced across devices, with every version backed up.

By default a resume lives only in your current browser (**local mode**). Turn on **cloud sync** and it's stored in the cloud — pick up on another device, with version history backed up automatically.

## How to enable it

<Steps>
  <Step title="Sign in first">
    Cloud sync needs an account — [sign up / sign in](/en/guide/account) first.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Turn it on in Settings">
    **Settings → Cloud Sync**, switch on **Enable cloud sync**. The first time, you'll see a short data-upload notice; confirm to activate.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Once on, edits on this device **sync automatically** to the cloud, and any other signed-in device sees the latest version.

## Reading the sync status

The top of the editor shows the current state:

| Shown          | Meaning                                                      |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Synced**     | Cloud and local match — you're good                          |
| **Syncing…**   | Uploading your changes                                       |
| **Pending**    | Changes not uploaded yet (e.g. you just went offline)        |
| **Sync Error** | Something failed; it retries after you check your connection |
| **Local Only** | Cloud sync is off — stored on this device only               |

<Note>
  **What if I edit the same resume on two devices?** The system handles conflicts and tries hard not to lose your work. ⚠️ To verify visually: to be safe, avoid heavily editing the same resume on two devices at once.
</Note>

<Warning>
  Turn off cloud sync or sign out and new changes stay local only. For important resumes, keep a [JSON export](/en/guide/export) as a backup.
