Sync

Keep your vocabulary and study progress in step across your Macs. Sync is off by default.

iCloud Drive

Turn on iCloud Drive and your vocabulary and study progress stay in step between your Macs. RealDict only writes the files; macOS does the transfer.

Another synced folder

You can also point RealDict at a folder that already syncs, such as Dropbox or a NAS. RealDict writes the files and that service moves them.

Google Sheets Advanced

Sends the day’s words to your own Google sheet through an Apps Script you deploy yourself, so there is no Google sign-in in the app.

Google Drive sync Advanced

Requires your own Google OAuth client ID. Once connected, the OAuth sign-in and a snapshot of your vocabulary go to Google.
