NSync 0.6.1

NSync 0.6.1

First public release. NSync syncs your Obsidian vaults across desktop and mobile
through your own Google Drive, signing in with your own Google Cloud OAuth
client. No server, no third-party sync service, nothing passes through the
plugin author.

⚠️ Early software. Back up your vault before the first sync.

New in 0.6.1

• Settings: Choose from Google Drive now sits on its own row under Vault name on Google Drive and Apply.

New in 0.6.0

• Choose from Google Drive. In settings, pick which vault on Drive this vault syncs with from a list (file count, size, last change) instead of typing its name. Picking one opens the first-sync review right away. Works on desktop and mobile.

New in 0.5.3

• Clears the remaining automated-review warnings (typed the desktop sign-in helper so it no longer relies on Node type definitions).

New in 0.5.2

• Meets Obsidian's community plugin guidelines: styles moved to styles.css, stricter typing, clearer sentence-case UI text.
• Commands renamed: Sync now and Show files on Google Drive. If you had hotkeys on the old commands, set them again.

Highlights

• 🔁 Two-way sync across desktop and iOS/Android, one plugin
• 🗂️ Many vaults, one Google account. Vaults are kept separate by Vault name on Google Drive
• 🔐 Bring your own OAuth client. The plugin ships no credentials
• ✅ First-sync review. See every upload, download and delete before anything is written
• 🧩 Conflict copies. Editing the same note on two devices keeps both versions; identical files are simply matched
• 🪦 Deletes stay deleted, even on devices that join later
• 🛑 Safety stop against syncs that would wipe most of a vault
• ⏱️ Auto-sync every 60 s, live progress, and a status bar icon on desktop
• 👀 Show files on Google Drive to browse NSync's hidden Drive folder

Install

1. Download main.js, manifest.json and styles.css from the assets below.
