Aetherium Sync
Your tabs, history and bookmarks on every computer, end-to-end encrypted.
Aetherium Sync keeps your history, bookmarks, open tabs and settings the same on every computer you use. Everything is encrypted on your computer with a passphrase only you know before it is sent, so the sync server cannot read it. Passwords and cookies are never synced.

Choose what to sync
Open the sync panel from the profile menu (it shows Sync is on - synced … ago). Under What to sync:
| Switch | Notes |
|---|---|
| History | Clearing history on one computer clears it on the others. |
| Bookmarks | |
| Open tabs | See them under Tabs from other devices. Private tabs are never shared. |
| Settings | Theme, search engine, shortcuts and similar; never settings that only make sense on one computer. |
| Profile look | Colour, style and picture. |
| New tab shortcuts | Your shortcut tiles. |
| Extensions list | Web Store extensions only; other computers offer to Install them. |
| Page Reply Bot setup | Off by default. |
Use Sync now to sync straight away, or Pause to stop for a while. Under Devices you can see, and remove, every computer that syncs.
Change your passphrase
In the sync panel open Change your sync passphrase, enter the current one and the new one twice, and press Change passphrase. Your other computers keep syncing. If you think the old passphrase leaked, also tick My old passphrase may have leaked: re-encrypt everything with a new key; your other computers will then ask for the new passphrase.

In the sync panel press Turn off sync and sign out, then confirm. Everything stays on this computer. To also remove your data from the server, use Delete synced data (you type your email to confirm).
