Save & Sync for batches

Learn about Photoroom's Save & Sync feature for Batch editing.

Written by Craig Wright

Save & Sync is a feature that automatically saves your batches as a Batch Project. This means you can:

  • Partially complete work on a batch of images and come back later to finish off

  • Move between the Batch editor and other editors and tools, without losing your batch

  • Have different people in a Space work on the same batch.

If you don’t have Save & Sync, your batches are not saved.


Who has Save & Sync?

  • Web App:
    Save & Sync is available to all users.
    ​

  • iOS and Android:
    Save & Sync is being rolled out gradually. You might not have it yet.
    ​


What happens if you have Save & Sync?

Photoroom saves your batches automatically as Batch Projects in the Space. There is a sync indicator, shown as a cloud icon, that displays the current save and sync status. For details, see the Sync & Save status section below.

When your Batch Projects are saved, you can exit the batch and reopen it later. For details, see Reopen a saved batch of images (Web App).


What happens if you don't have Save & Sync?

If you don't have Save & Sync, Photoroom does not save your batches as Batch Projects.

On iOS and Android, this means you can only:

  • Create a new batch

  • Resume the previous batch you were working on.

When you start a new batch, you get Start new batch and Resume previous batch options. For details, see:


Save & Sync status

Save & Sync uses a cloud symbol to represent the current status of your batch. The possible statuses are:

  • Cloud with checkmark:

    ​

    cloud icon with a checkmark in the center

  • Cloud with ellipsis:

    ​

    red cloud icon with a strike through line through the center

  • Cloud with exclamation mark:
    Unstable connection. Some of your changes may not be saved until you have a stable connection.
    ​

  • Cloud with line through it:
    No internet connection. Your changes won't be saved until you're back online.
