#Sync your profile across devices

If you use Status on more than one device, sync your profile so it's up to date on every device, and you can switch between them seamlessly. Without syncing, you are likely to set up the same options more than once and receive multiple notifications for one single message.

#What to expect

• You can pair and sync up to three devices, including mobile devices and computers. You can sync a mobile device or computer with another device or computer.
• Once you set up the syncing, your Status profile data on your devices are in sync automatically until you unpair the devices.
• Your profile data includes your message status (read or unread) and configuration for the profile, messaging, notification and wallets.
• When you sign in to your profile on another device, that device immediately appears in the list of devices for syncing.
• If you have multiple profiles, you need to set up syncing for each one of them.

#Before you sync

To avoid issues when pairing and syncing your devices, follow these recommendations:

• Only sync two devices at a time.
• Both devices must have the Status app open and running with the profile you want to sync.
• Make sure both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. You can set up syncing over mobile networks after the first sync.
• Disable any VPN or firewall on the network where the devices are connected.

#Sync your profile

When setting up syncing, you need to reveal the QR code or sync code on the primary device and scan or enter the code on the other device. Sync codes and QR codes are only valid for a limited time. If the time expires, confirm your profile credentials again to get new one.

#Turn off profile syncing

Turning off syncing degrades your experience with Status. But you can turn it off when you want to dispose of a device, or you see a device you don't recognize.
