There is no single "export everything" button. Three separate mechanisms cover different parts of your setup, and knowing which is which saves a lot of hunting.
What Cloud Sync carries
With Cloud Sync on, signing in on the new machine brings across:
- Workspaces and their entries
- Your personal context and global custom vocabulary
- AI providers and models, including BYOK definitions
- Voice commands, command groups and app favourites
The one thing you can export
Hands-Free settings offer Export and Import for a JSON bundle of voice commands, command groups, app favourites and custom vocabulary. Useful without an account, or for sharing a command set with a colleague.
| Requires Pro? | |
|---|---|
| Export | No |
| Import | Yes |
Import is additive — existing entries are kept and only new ones are added — and you can choose which categories to bring in.
What you have to redo
- Downloaded models — re-download on the new machine; they are large and deliberately not synced
- API keys — held in the OS credential store, which does not travel with your account
- Dictation history and statistics — local by design and never uploaded
- All preferences — hotkeys, audio device, injection mode, theme
If you use Private Sync
The new machine will ask for your recovery key once before it can read encrypted content. Have it to hand before you wipe the old machine — it cannot be recovered from our side. Private Sync covers the details.
