Use Jotifi on your other devices#
Install Jotifi on your other devices and sign in with the same account: the same button (Apple, Google or email) you used the first time. Your projects appear and stay in sync. You can keep working without a connection; changes sync when you are back online. See Sync and working offline.
If the first screen lists a workspace you used before on that device, select it to sign back in to it. To learn how workspaces work, see Switch and create workspaces.
