Notes sync and conflicts

How delta sync works and what to do when two devices edit the same note.

Before you start

  • Cloud sync enabled in Settings.

Steps

  1. 1

    Each note has updated_at — the newest save wins when devices sync.

  2. 2

    Offline edits queue locally; they upload when network returns (outbox banner on mobile/desktop).

  3. 3

    If Hub or client shows a conflict banner, open the note and choose Reload from server or keep local and save again.

  4. 4

    Partial PUT guard: empty snapshots are rejected — never save a blank note over full content.

  5. 5

    Team notes: trash/restore is shared; deleted notes stay in team trash 30 days.

Common mistakes

  • Large vaults use pagination (10k notes) — scroll to load more in Hub.
  • Force sync: Settings → Sync now on desktop or pull-to-refresh in mobile Notes.
