Saving & Syncing

Learn how to save and sync estimates to the cloud in PaintScout to prevent data loss and keep your work updated.

PaintScout does not auto-save estimates. Press the Save button regularly while working to sync your changes to the cloud and prevent data loss.

You will find the save button on the top right of your estimate when working on a desktop or on the bottom right when using a mobile device.

While your changes are syncing to the system you may see the save button loading.

If you try and leave an estimate before saving, we'll do our best to remind you! You may see this message when that happens:

If you have accidentally closed your browser or powered down your device without saving you will be met with this message and you will be given the option to select yes and save the changes or discard the changes.
