Overview

Keeping your library synced via Google Sync / FireFox sync allows you allows you to keep the same library across multiple devices.

This means that you can add tracks and make changes on one device and the changes will reflect on your other device. When you make a change such as adding a new playlist or track, updating a track or linking it to a new playlist, the tracks details will be automatically uploaded to your sync storage. TrackDen will then go and scan this storage and sync the latest changes to your other device if they are missing.

Syncing is only possible on the same account i.e. from Google Account X (Device 1) → Google Account X (Device 2)

If you want to migrate your library onto a different browser / account then you can perform a restore and import your data into your new instance.
