# Collect Snippets in multiple ways

A representative Tab for storage and management of different categories of snippets can be created for different types of Snippets. Management of the Tab via iCloud is also available in Pro version.

### 5/5 — Not Syncing

*2025-01-15*

I like the app, but I can't sync it between my iPad 4 Air and 12 Pro Max. I followed your instructions and upgraded, but it's still not working. Please help. Thank you.

I seem to have lost all my saved data, and I find it hard to get help. I just get directed to Telegram. I’ve had this app for a while, and it used to be one of my favorites. However, I can't transfer my information easily from the .49 short-term app to my Lifetime app, which caused many problems. I've been trying to fix this for over 2 years now. It became so frustrating that I had to take a break. The app has all my important links.

What is the correct way to sync or back up to iCloud?

### 1/5 — Only useful if you pay subscription

*2024-12-28*

As someone whom once was poor, I will never subscribe nor support apps that provide zero functionality to those whom can’t afford a subscription no matter how cheap ur price. Classism is oppressive.

### 4/5 — 为什么永久订阅反而能家庭共享

*2024-10-09, version 3.1.2*

在使用阶段  由于订阅一周可以家人共享  是个不错的体验，所以永久订阅  但是永久订阅为什么不支持家人共享？？？
