Ever since we got our hands on smartphones and tablets, we tend to use the web browser to search websites on the go.

It doesn’t stop there as we surf the web on multiple devices, including desktop,laptops, or even smart TVs at home.

It can be difficult to remember the browsing history, login passwords, bookmarks, etc., you create on different devices.

Browser sync saves the day by offering you all the data across devices.
