Synchronization

1.10.2

Get the wholesome perspective of your workday! You may finally switch between your work and home computers, or work from any laptop with Y-Productive. Your data, such as tasks, projects, categorization preset, settings, and stats will be transferred seamlessly.

The synchronization works by the principle of switching and "activating" the computer you work with:

Let's briefly explain how it works.

Say, you have an office laptop A and home laptop B. If you worked with laptop A, and later switched to work with laptop B, Y-Productive will ask you to activate tracking on laptop B (and vice versa).

It is done to record only the data related to your work process, and to prevent overwriting your information with dummy activities just because your other computer decided to wake up for the update, or if somebody else started your other computer at home. The #2 on the screenshot list explains a rare case when you worked on computer A with an Internet connection, and then switched to the computer B which is offline (and you didn't activate it before going offline). Such data will not be saved.

If you only use one computer, or did activate your current device before going offline, everything will be fine.

This feature is fairly new and we don't have a department of QAs, so if you'll experience any troubles, or still have questions about how it works, feel free to reach out. I will be glad to help.

Have a nice time synchronizing!

What we're working on:

The local data storage feature, to ensure the option for the bulletproof data security for any of you who want to keep their data closer to the body.
