What kind of service is sync in Samsung Cloud

Last Update date : Oct 01. 2026

Sync is one of the many services that you can find in Samsung Cloud. It allows you to use your Samsung account to perform functions like setting events on your calendar, programming reminders and storing information across multiple devices.

View of the Sync service provided by Samsung Cloud.

Sync matches the data on all devices that are synced to Samsung Cloud and uses the same Samsung account.

For example, when a synced note is edited or deleted on one device, the note will also be edited or deleted on every device logged into the same Samsung account.

How to sync your data

  • Go to Settings > Accounts and backup >  Back up data / Restore data in Samsung Cloud section. Or tap on Samsung Cloud (at the bottom of screen).

 

Activate the items you want to sync in the Samsung Cloud app. If you activate the sync button for a specific app, it will automatically sync whenever you create new content or modify it. If you want to sync your data immediately, press “Sync Now”.
