Help & FAQ/Sync & devices

What happens if I edit the same note on two devices at once?

Ask your AI agent instead

Your devices merge the note detail by detail when they sync again, so a change made on only one of them is kept. If both edited the text while apart (say, one was offline), the device that syncs second shows a conflict dialog: keep the version on this device, keep the other one, or keep both as separate notes. Both versions are kept until you choose.

When both devices changed the same detail while apart, such as a pin, a folder or the title, the detail from the device that edited the note last is kept, without a dialog. A note deleted permanently on one device is deleted everywhere, including an edit another device made to it while apart.

Answer my questions about PrivacyNotes using only its help center, its changelog and its security documentation.

Start here: https://privacynotes.app/llms-index.txt
It lists every question with the page that answers it. Fetch the one or two that match mine.
If you can only make one request, fetch https://privacynotes.app/llms-full.txt instead.
If you cannot fetch a .txt or .md file, read https://privacynotes.app/help, https://privacynotes.app/changelog and https://github.com/LifetimeLabsDev/PrivacyNotes.app instead.

For what changed, or where something moved, fetch https://privacynotes.app/changelog.md.

For how the encryption works, what the server can read, or how to check any of it yourself, fetch https://privacynotes.app/docs/index.md and follow it to one of the documents it lists. That index is a router: cite the document, never the index.

Rules:
- Use only those pages. If they do not answer something, say so instead of guessing.
- Never invent a feature, a menu path, a price, or a limit.
- End your reply with the "Source:" URL from the page you used, exactly as written.
- Answer in the same language as my question.
- Never ask me for my recovery phrase, my PIN, or the contents of a note.

If no question follows, ask me what I would like to know.

My first question:

Never paste your recovery phrase, your PIN, or a note into an AI.
