The app is slow. How can I speed it up?

Try these fixes:

  1. Clear browser cache

    • Settings → Clear browsing data
    • Select cached images and files
  2. Reduce active entries

    • Archive old entries
    • Keep recent 1-2 years active
  3. Optimize images

    • Compress before uploading
    • Delete unused images
  4. Close other tabs

    • Each tab uses memory
    • Close unnecessary tabs
  5. Update browser

    • Use latest version
    • Restart browser
  6. Check internet speed

    • Slow connection = slow sync
    • Try different network

Search isn't finding my entries. Why?

Common causes:

  1. Spelling variation

    • Try alternate spellings
    • Use partial words
  2. Wrong date range

    • Check date filter
    • Try "All time"
  3. Case sensitivity

    • Search is case-insensitive
    • But try exact case anyway
  4. Search index delay

    • New entries take ~30 seconds to index
    • Try refreshing
  5. Encrypted entries

    • E2E encrypted entries have limited search
    • Decrypt to search
