Support for Windows device

This is a very short duration for the inSync mobile app to complete a backup operation in the background. You can access backup and share data by using the inSync mobile app.

Can users add files to the inSync Share folder by using the inSync mobile app on their Windows device?

Yes. Users can access backup and share data by using the inSync mobile app. They can also add content to their inSync Share folder by using the inSync mobile app.

Password and data security

How are passwords secured on the mobile app?
