auto sync

Seamless background data transfer

Auto sync is a feature that automatically keeps data consistent across multiple devices or accounts without manual intervention.

When enabled, changes made on one device—photos, contacts, files, settings—appear on linked devices: I turned on auto sync so my calendar updates everywhere.

The feature runs in the background, typically when connected to the internet.
