"Sync," short for synchronization, is the process of keeping data consistent across multiple devices, ensuring that changes made on one are reflected on all others. This is commonly used for files, emails, settings, and other information, allowing seamless access and updates from different locations.

How it works

Data Transfer: A sync process connects two or more devices, typically over the internet or a network.

Comparison: It checks for any differences in files and information between the devices.

Updates: The system then updates the affected files on each device so that all versions are identical and up-to-date.

Common uses

File Sync: Keeping the same files available on a computer, tablet, and smartphone.

Browser Sync: Synchronizing bookmarks, history, and settings across different web browsers.

App Sync: Maintaining consistency in app settings, data, and states across multiple devices.

Data Backup: Acting as an automatic backup solution, where files are stored on a separate location (like the cloud).
