Sync overview

Cloud sync is strictly opt-in. Pick iCloud, Dropbox, WebDAV, S3, or Alibaba OSS.

Sync is off by default. When you turn it on, Todrise talks directly to a backend you choose and control. Todrise (the project) does not run a sync server and has no access to your data.

Supported backends

iCloud (Apple platforms only) — zero-config on iOS / macOS.
Dropbox — sign in once, works across platforms.
WebDAV — any compliant server (Nextcloud, Synology, etc.).
S3-compatible — AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, MinIO, Backblaze B2.
Alibaba OSS.

How it works

Changes are written locally first, then pushed to the backend in the background. Other devices pull on launch and on push-notification. The protocol is CRDT-style so concurrent edits on two devices do not clobber each other (see Conflict resolution).
