Keep Tasks Synced
Across All Your Devices

iCloud sync keeps your tasks in sync. Mostly automatically. Usually instantly.

HOW ICLOUD SYNC WORKS

iCloud Sync: Automatic Multi-Device Support

Pachinko uses iCloud to sync your tasks across Mac and iPhone. Create a task on your Mac, it appears on your iPhone. Complete something on your iPhone, it's marked done on your Mac. The sync happens automatically in the background - you don't manage it, you just work and trust that your changes propagate.

When you're offline, Pachinko continues working. You can create, edit, and complete tasks without internet. When you reconnect, your changes sync to iCloud and spread to your other devices. Conflicts are rare - if you edit the same task on two devices while offline, the most recent change wins when they sync.

When Sync Feels Slow

  • poor connection Sync waits for better signal
  • icloud issues Apple's infrastructure affects everyone
  • lots of changes Large batches take longer to propagate
  • new machine Downloading all your data fresh
  • device sleep Sleeping devices don't receive updates until wake
