Saved means that the server has confirmed receipt. Saving, Waiting for connection and Local draft mean cloud synchronization has not finished; those states are not a completed backup.

When a save is pending

  1. Keep the page open, check your connection and wait for the save status to update.
  2. If the status offers a retry, select it. Follow any separate retry prompt shown for notes.
  3. When the connection returns, or you sign in again with the same account, the browser will attempt to upload pending content retained on this device.
  4. If asked to select the original PDF again, use the same original file. If note versions conflict, compare local and cloud content first.
