Cloud Sync

How Project sync, plan limits, and conflict copies work in Beadify.

You must sign in before cloud sync is available. Beadify remains local-first, and sync adds cross-device continuity for the current Project state.

Plan Limits (Default)

  • Free: up to 3 project folders and up to 10 synced projects.
  • Paid: no product-level project folder count quota and up to 500 synced projects.

Project folders are account-scoped organization metadata. Folder names, cover references, sort order, and project assignments sync with your account when you are signed in. Deleting a folder does not delete its projects.

Sync Modes

  • Free: manual or triggered sync (Sync now).
  • Paid: automatic sync with outbox flushing.

If cloud usage is over free quota after downgrade grace, cloud writes can become read-only while local editing still works.

Current Project State

Cloud sync stores one current state for each synced Project. Beadify no longer creates or exposes Project History, checkpoints, or restore actions. Any pre-existing legacy version snapshots are not a current plan benefit and are retained only until their recorded expiry or deletion while retirement finishes.

Cloud Inventory Snapshot (My Inventory)

  • Paid/Lifetime users can read and write the cloud inventory snapshot.
  • Free users can read only their own previously synced cloud inventory snapshot.
  • Free users cannot create new cloud inventory writes until they upgrade.

Why You May See [conflict]

[conflict] means cloud sync detected a revision mismatch (for example, stale base revision) and created a safe local copy to avoid data loss.

How to handle:

  1. Open both projects and compare results.
  2. Keep the project with the edits you want.
  3. Delete the other one.
  4. Click Sync now.

To reduce conflicts, avoid editing the same project in multiple tabs/devices at the same time, and sync before switching devices.
