Cloud sync

Screenshot placeholder — Cloud sync settings with connected devices list.

Real-time sync over the Voltius relay. Pro and Teams plans.

How it works

  • Sign in with your Voltius account (created on app.voltius.app or in-app).
  • The desktop derives enc_key (Argon2id + HKDF-SHA256) from your password.
  • CRDT payloads are encrypted with enc_key and pushed over an SSE channel to the relay.
  • Other devices subscribed to your account receive and merge in real time.

The relay sees ciphertext only — see Security → Sync protocol.

Field Notes
Email Your Voltius account
Password Used to derive both auth_key (server login) and enc_key (vault)

If you don't have an account yet, Create account from the same screen.

What syncs

  • Hosts, folders, tags
  • Identities, keys, known hosts
  • Snippets, port-forwarding rules
  • App preferences such as theme, UI scale, list/grid layouts, and sort modes

Most user data and preferences are included in sync. Device-specific runtime state, such as currently open terminals, is not.

Trade-offs
