Cloud Sync
Optional cloud sync via Supabase — backup and sync notes across devices
Cloud Sync
Readied works 100% offline by default. Cloud sync is an optional feature for backing up your notes and syncing them across multiple devices. You never need to create an account or connect to the internet to use Readied.
Authentication
Readied uses magic link email authentication powered by Supabase. There are no passwords to remember.
- Open Settings > Account
- Enter your email address
- Check your inbox for the magic link
- Click the link to sign in
Once authenticated, sync begins automatically.
How Sync Works
- Notes are synced to Supabase cloud storage (PostgreSQL)
- Sync runs automatically in the background while you work
- When you go offline, changes are queued locally and pushed when your connection returns
- Conflict resolution uses a last-write-wins strategy with local priority — your local edits always take precedence if the same note was modified on two devices simultaneously
Because Readied is offline-first, you will never lose work due to a network issue. The local SQLite database is always the primary source of truth.
Sync Status
The sync status indicator in the sidebar footer shows the current state at a glance:
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Synced | All notes are up to date with the cloud |
| Syncing | A sync operation is currently in progress |
| Offline | No internet connection; changes are queued locally |
| Error | Something went wrong; check troubleshooting below |
Privacy
- Your data is stored in Supabase (PostgreSQL) when sync is enabled
- All data transfer uses HTTPS
- You can delete your cloud data at any time from Settings > Account
- Sync is entirely optional — you can use Readied without ever signing in
- If you sign out, your local notes remain untouched on your machine
Troubleshooting
Sync appears stuck
Open Settings > Account and use Force Sync to trigger a full re-sync.
Sync shows an error state
- Check your internet connection
- Try signing out and signing back in to refresh your authentication token
- If the issue persists, check the Readied logs for details
Notes not appearing on another device
Make sure you are signed in with the same email on both devices. After signing in, allow a moment for the initial sync to complete.
