Sync & Your Account

Your account

Anchor is built around an account (email and password, or Google or Microsoft sign-in). Every new account starts with a free 60-day trial. Your desktops live in the cloud, tied to your account, which gives you:

  1. Cloud backup. Your setup is stored securely and survives browser resets and new computers.
  2. Multi-device sync. Open Anchor on any browser, on any device, and your desktops are there. Changes sync in real time: edit a bookmark on your work machine and it's already updated on your laptop.
  3. Connected widgets. Calendar (Google or Microsoft) and Todoist connections are stored securely with your account.

How sync behaves offline

Changes save instantly and sync to the cloud. If you go offline, keep working; your edits are queued and sent up when the connection returns.

Signing out

Signing out on a device leaves your cloud data untouched. Sign back in anywhere and everything's there. If you've used a shared machine, you can also sign out of all devices at once from Settings.

Deleting your account

You can delete your account anytime from Settings → Account:

  • Deletion has a 30-day grace period. Changed your mind? Sign back in within 30 days and your account is restored.
  • After 30 days, your account and data are permanently removed.

Privacy, plainly

  • Your data is stored only to provide backup and sync. It is not sold, not shared with advertisers, and not used to train AI models.
  • Anchor has no ads and no trackers.
