Couldn't run Enpass after 5.0 update. Now, What I can do???

A

Q

Why should I enable sync on my device? Is it safe?

A

If you want to use Enpass across multiple devices, you need to enable sync to keep the changes synchronized. We recommend using cloud sync as it automatically takes a backup of your data with the latest changes; thus lowering the risk of losing data.

Q

Can I enable sync with multiple clouds at a time?

A

No, Enpass supports only one cloud sync support at one time but you can sync as many number of devices in one time.
