Important notes
1. Edit vs sync
When synchronizing, it is important to
remember that only the most recently
edited copy of a saved location is retained.
The time and sequence of syncs do not
matter: it is the time of the edits that
counts. The most recent always wins.
For example:
Sign up or sign in to
your account to
sync locations
