Where is my writing saved?
On your device, as you type. Your writing never leaves it unless you sign in.
- Your pieces are under Pieces in the Hub.
- Earlier versions keeps a copy for each of the last seven days you wrote. Restoring asks first.
- If storage fills up, Inka says Saving is paused. Export, then clear space.
- Clearing your browser's site data deletes your writing on that device. Sign in or export first.
Sign-in and sync
No account needed to write. Sign in to have your pieces on more than one device: Hub, Account, Sign in. Google, or email.
- Pieces and the words you add to the dictionary sync. Rooms, sounds, settings and stats stay on each device.
- Syncs a moment after you stop typing, every two minutes, and when you return to the tab.
- Same piece changed on two devices: the newer change wins.
- Written while signed out: kept, and uploaded next time you sign in.
- Signing out leaves everything on the device.
Does Inka work offline?
Yes, once it has loaded on that device. Writing, pieces, timers and sounds you have used all work. You can install it from your browser's menu.
Needs a connection: sign-in and sync, animated rooms (you get the still), Spotify, YouTube backgrounds, Google Docs.
