Settings Sync

Share your theme, language, shortcuts and preferences between every machine you use Logier on. Sync is off by default, opt-in per device, and only ever runs when you press Sync.

If you use Logier on more than one machine, Settings Sync keeps them looking and behaving the same. Your theme, language, keyboard shortcuts, log table layout and Copilot preferences travel with your account instead of being set up again on every computer.

Sync is off by default, switched on per device, and never runs on its own. Nothing is uploaded or downloaded until you press the Sync button.

Turning it on#

Open Settings → Settings Sync and switch on Sync settings.

Turning the switch on replaces this device's settings with the ones already in your account. That is what makes a second machine match your first one. If your account has nothing stored yet, nothing is overwritten — the status simply tells you there are changes to send, and pressing Sync uploads them.

Syncing is manual#

There is no background sync, no timer, and nothing happens when you launch the app. Change whatever you like, then press Sync when you want those changes shared. Your settings are yours until you say otherwise.

The Status row tells you where you stand:

• —Changes on this device aren't synced yet — you have edited something since the last sync
• —Last synced … — this device and your account agree
• —Not synced yet — this device has never synced

Pressing Sync does one of two things, depending on what you have done since last time. If you have local changes, it uploads them. If you have not changed anything, it checks for changes made on your other machines and brings them down. So the habit is: change settings on one machine and press Sync, then press Sync on the other machine to pick them up.

What gets synced#

• —Your selected theme and interface language
• —Keyboard shortcut overrides
• —Log table column order, visibility and widths
• —Which items are visible in the navigation rail
• —Notification preferences
• —Copilot settings — provider, max tokens, system prompt, local model address, and which MCP tools are switched off
• —Email alert settings — sender, recipients, trigger levels and cooldown

What never gets synced#

A few other things stay put because they describe a machine rather than an account:

• —Open tabs, the file tree and pinned files
• —Custom log format schemas
• —Cloud storage connections — these already live with your account, see Cloud Storage
• —The Sync switch itself — each device decides for itself

Custom themes need one extra step#

Sync stores which theme you selected, not the theme file itself. If you are using a custom theme, the other machine needs that theme installed too — otherwise it falls back to the default until the file shows up.

The quickest fix is the browser theme builder — open your theme there and press Use in Logier on each machine.

When two devices disagree#

Your settings are stored as one set, not merged field by field. If you change something on two machines without syncing in between, the next Sync you press wins — that machine's settings become the ones in your account. Pressing Sync on a machine with no local changes never overwrites anything.

Turning it off#

Switching the toggle off stops this device sharing settings. Nothing local is changed or deleted, and the settings already in your account stay there for your other devices.

To stop a machine you no longer have access to, revoke it instead — see Signed-in Devices.
