Sync overview

Vetroscope is fully local by default — sync is opt-in. When you enable it, your entries, tags, goals, events, reminders, settings and customizations mirror across your devices, end-to-end encrypted.

Sync targets

A sync target is a place your data mirrors to. There are two kinds:

• Vetroscope Cloud — our hosted service. Nothing to run; requires Vetroscope Pro. See Vetroscope Cloud.
• Home Sync — a server you host on your own hardware; data never leaves your network. Included with a license. See Home Sync.

Add targets in Settings → Sync → Add sync target. You can use both at once — they sync in parallel — or disable a target without removing it.

Whichever target you use, sensitive fields are encrypted on your device before upload with your encryption key; no server — ours or yours — can read them.

When syncing happens

Automatically: at launch, every few minutes while running, shortly after new activity, and when the window regains focus. Sync Now in Settings → Sync forces a round immediately.

Reading the status

Each target shows its state — Synced (with “just now” or “N m ago”), Syncing… with live progress (“Pushing to…” / “Pulling from…”), Offline, or Sync error with the reason. End-to-end encrypted confirms the encryption key is active.

Each target’s ⋯ menu has Show details, Reconnect (sign in again without re-setup), Remove target, and — behind an encryption-key check — the destructive Wipe and re-push. If a status won’t clear, see Sync troubleshooting.
