Sync Your Tasks and Notes Across Chrome, Brave, and Edge

Most of us use more than one browser. Chrome on the work laptop, Edge on the office desktop, Brave on the personal machine at home. The problem is that a to-do list written in one browser is invisible in the others, so the task you jotted down this morning is nowhere to be found when you sit at a different screen this afternoon. This guide shows you how to keep the same tasks and notes in sync across Chrome, Brave, and Edge — without giving up control of your data.

The approach matters. Slaet is built local-first, which means syncing is something you switch on when you need it, not a requirement you accept to use the app at all. Here is how the two modes work and how to move between them.

How Slaet stores your tasks by default

When you install Slaet and start typing, everything you write — tasks, notes, lists, and reminders — is saved right on your device. You do not need an account, and it all works fully offline. This is the local-first default: fast, private, and available even with no connection. If you only ever use one browser on one machine, you can stop here and never sign in. To see why that is a genuinely good option, read about using an offline to-do list with no account.

The trade-off is simple and worth stating plainly: because local data lives in that one browser, it stays in that one browser. Open a different browser and you start with a clean slate. That is exactly the gap sync is designed to close.

How to sync your tasks and notes across browsers

Turning on sync takes one step — an optional Google sign-in. Once you are signed in, your tasks and notes are kept in step across every browser and device where you sign in with the same account.

1. Install Slaet from the Chrome Web Store in Chrome, Brave, or Edge — all three run Chrome extensions, so the same install works in each.
2. Open a new tab and sign in with Google. This is the only step that switches on cloud sync.
3. Repeat the sign-in on your other browsers and devices using the same Google account. Each one now shows the same tasks and notes.

From then on the flow is seamless: start a task on your laptop in Chrome, and it is already waiting when you open Edge on your desktop. You can also reach everything from the web app at app.slaet.space in any browser. If you are new to setting Slaet up on a fresh browser, the new-tab setup walkthrough covers the basics.

Where your synced data lives

When sync is on, the shared copy of your tasks and notes is stored on Supabase, tied to your account. That is the copy that travels between Chrome, Brave, and Edge. A few things stay true throughout: Slaet never reads your browsing history and never sells your data, and you stay in charge of the account. If you ever want it gone, you can delete your account and all of its synced data at any time — and you are free to drop back to local-only use whenever you like. For a fuller tour of how it all fits together, the Slaet guide walks through each piece.

Choosing the right mode for you

There is no single correct answer, and you are not locked in. Use local-first mode on a shared or work computer where you would rather leave nothing behind. Sign in on your own machines when you want the same list following you between the laptop and the desktop. Because the default is local and sync is opt-in, you get to decide task by task, machine by machine — and switching one on does not force it on the rest.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to create an account to use Slaet?

No. Slaet works fully offline with no account — your tasks and notes stay on your device. Signing in with Google is only needed if you want them to sync across browsers and devices.

Which browsers can I sync between?

Chrome, Brave, and Edge. All three run Chrome extensions, so once you sign in with the same Google account, your tasks and notes follow you across every browser and device.

Is syncing free?

Yes. Slaet is completely free with no paid tier — sync included. There is nothing to upgrade and no card required.

Can I delete my synced data later?

Yes. You can delete your account and all synced data at any time, and go back to using Slaet locally. Slaet never reads your browsing history and never sells your data.
