## 🚀 Features
|
|
|
|
- ✅ **Bookmark Syncing**: Automatically sync bookmarks between your Chrome browsers.
|
|
- 🔐 **Token-Based Syncing**: Your data is linked to a unique **sync token**—share it with other devices to sync across them.
|
|
- 🌐 **Cross-Device Support**: Use the same token on multiple devices to keep them in sync.
|
|
- 🔄 **Real-Time Updates** *(Planned)*: Upcoming support for near-instant sync between devices.
