Why my favourites are only on this device

The short answer

Your favourites and recently used calculators are kept in this browser only. They are not stored in your account and they are not synced between devices, so a different phone, computer or browser starts with an empty list.

Why it works this way

Keeping favourites in the browser means they are not tied to an account, so you can use Calcylator without ever signing in. The trade-off is that they stay with the browser where you saved them.

What is kept in this browser

• Calculators you marked with the Favourite star.
• Calculators you used recently.
• The values you last entered in a calculator, which may be remembered so you do not retype them.

Favourites and recents show on the Categories page under My Calculators.

When they disappear

• You clear your browser data.
• You use private mode, which does not keep them.
• You open Calcylator in a different browser or on another device.

Signing in with Google does not change this. Favourites and history are not stored with your account.

Rebuild your list on a new device

1. 1Open Calcylator on the new device or browser.
2. 2Open each calculator you use.
3. 3Press the Favourite star under the quick answer.
