    Would be nice to have the search engines sync across devices. Should be easy enough to implement given that it is already synchronizing bookmarks etc.

      vkt You mean custom entered search engines? That would be great to have synh botn on dekstop and on mobile too.

          Chrome greets you with a login screen, to sync everything you have/had. Orion does most of it, but NOT the extensions. As a power user who uses 10+ extensions, this is a major roadblock for me.

            DariusBurinskis This "major" roadblock in terms of lacking ability to automatically import extensions (they can still be installed manually?) or in terms of those extensions still not being supported?

                still, its a feasible and nice feature to have.

                  eirk No doubt, question is whether Chrome/Firefox expose list of installed extensions (does any other browser do extension import?)

                      Maybe I read it wrong, but isn't the suggestion for extension sync across Orion instances synced by iCloud?

                        Vlad I can confirm that both firefox does extension import if you log into the browser on a new PC

                            Vlad no, but the way that I read the initial request was that the user wants another instance of orion on a new device to download the extensions that are on his other devices automatically

                                sschwetz Ah you are right I was confused with the title of the post. Syncing extensions is on our roadmap!

                                      I have several devices I use daily and it would be great to have settings and extensions synced as well to supported devices.

                                        +1 would love this feature. It would make trying Orion on various devices much easier. One suggestion: Allow syncing of settings and extensions by Profile. That way I can create separate settings and extensions profiles for e.g. my MacBook vs. my iPhone since I tend to use a different set of extensions on each.

                                              (splitting this off from https://orionfeedback.org/d/960-sync-browser-data-between-ios-ipados-and-macos/22 per @Vlad's suggestion)

                                              I would like to have a unified browser history across all devices. I currently have this with Firefox + Firefox mobile and losing this feature is the only thing keeping me from switching to Orion. I don't see the need to have history items associated with a particular device - it's all just history to me. I would also definitely not want history search to be segmented per device (so that I'd have to search history from each device to find a particular page that I viewed before).

                                                It could be possible to have it all in one list, but for those who don't appreciate the lack of distinction, adding filters and/or mobile/desktop icons may be beneficial.
