App Settings

The Settings page is organized into sections you can open from the left sidebar: Sync & Storage, Security, Notifications, Appearance, API Token, and Customize RPC. Each section has a short description and an info (ⓘ) tooltip next to its title.

Sync & Storage

The Sync & Storage section lets you set your device name, manage the folders you sync from this device, and sync folders shared from your other devices.

Device Name

Your device name appears at the top of the section under Device Name. By default it matches your computer's name. It's the label other devices see, so you can tell which device a folder was synced from (it's shown on remote folder cards and when choosing a sync destination).

  1. Click on
    Settings
    , then open Sync & Storage.
  2. Click Edit Name under Device Name.
  3. Type a new name (for example, "Work MacBook"), then click Save (or Cancel to keep the current one).

Local Sync Folders

The Local Sync Folders section lists every folder you sync from this device. Each folder syncs independently and shows its own status.

Adding a Folder

  1. In Local Sync Folders, click + Add Folder.
  2. Choose a folder on your device.
  3. Confirm to add it. Syncing starts automatically.

Each local folder card shows:

  • Folder name and a status badge: Syncing (green), Paused (grey), or Error (red)
  • Total size, file count, and the last-synced time
  • The full local path
  • A three-dot (⋮) menu of folder actions

If you haven't added anything yet, the section reads "No Folder Syncing Yet — Add a folder to get started with encrypted sync."

Per-Folder Actions

Click the three-dot (⋮) menu on any local folder card (or right-click the card) for these options:

  • Browse Contents: open a browser to inspect the folder's files.
  • Pause Sync / Resume Sync: pause syncing for this folder, or resume a paused one. Pausing asks you to confirm first.
  • Open in Finder / Open in Explorer: reveal the folder in your operating system's file manager.
  • Remove from Sync: stop syncing this folder. Your local files stay on your device, and remote files remain on the server.
  • Delete from Server: permanently delete all remote files for this folder. You must type the folder name to confirm.

Deleting from Server is permanent

Delete from Server permanently removes all remote files for that folder and cannot be undone. You'll be required to type the exact folder name, then click Delete Permanently, to confirm.

Syncing from Other Devices

Folders you sync on your other devices appear under Sync from Other Devices. Each remote folder card shows the folder name, its total size, file count, last-modified date, and the device it was synced from. From here you can pull a folder down to this device.

  1. In Sync from Other Devices, find the folder you want.
  2. Open its three-dot (⋮) menu and choose Sync to This Device.
  3. In the Choose Destination dialog, click Choose Destination Folder and pick a local location.
  4. Click Start Syncing to begin downloading and keeping the folder in sync.

The remote folder ⋮ menu also offers Browse Contents and Delete from Server.
