Compatible with Clip Studio Paint Ver. 3.0

 

CLIP STUDIO's cloud service allows you to edit the same file across devices with different operating systems, such as the iPad, or Windows, macOS and Android devices. For example, you can upload works drawn on your tablet on the go to the cloud, and then download it from the cloud to your computer at home to continue drawing.

You can also upload and manage materials that you have created from the cloud.

 

You need to log into Clip Studio to use the cloud service.

Note:

If the file name contains certain symbols or character strings (for example, / > < ? : " \ * | ; NUL), you may not be able to use it in the cloud service. We particularly recommend that you avoid the use of symbols in file names if you use macOS.

If a file cannot be synced, a warning will be displayed before setting up synchronization.

Updating Works to the Latest Version

Works that have been uploaded to the cloud or downloaded from the cloud will have their Switch syncing set to Syncing On.

 

When you sync your data, the app compares the update times of the works on the device and on the cloud, and synchronizes to the version with the most recent update time.

・If the version on the device is more recent, the cloud version will be discarded and overwritten with the version on the device.

・If the version on the cloud is more recent, the local version will be discarded and overwritten with the version in the cloud.

 

Synchronization matches the local works and the cloud works to ensure you always have the latest data.

 

On the projects screen, tap In this app (or This Device in the Windows/macOS version), and then tap Sync Now of the work you wish to share.

 

Note:

If you want to upload multiple works to the cloud at once, check the boxes for the works and select Syncing On beside Switch syncing status.
