Reading history and notes across browser contexts
Check which browser holds your reading records, find your place in each document and note where to continue.
Understand the browser scope
Positions and notes are local to the current browser, with no account-based cross-device sync. Notes on a laptop but not a phone need not indicate failed saving. Another browser or private window may use a different storage context; do not rely on its lifetime as a durable record.
Check lesson and material positions separately
Continue studying can restore the lesson while text and answer materials have different positions. Confirm book, lesson and material, then locate the exercise or opening independently. A digital page number alone is insufficient. Close or switch from a mobile tool to reading rather than clear records to recover the view.
Leave a minimal continuation record
Use a stable device/browser and end with lesson, section, last independent task, one unresolved point and next action. Copy important notes before clearing site data. Deleted records cannot be guaranteed recoverable; rebuild a starting point from retained tasks and errors without claiming the lost content was recovered.
Example
Continuation note: Minna Elementary II Lesson 26 | Exercise B | one independent item | に/で uncertain | retry it without the model before the next item.
Check your understanding
Before closing, record one task sufficient for tomorrow and keep important content in your usual durable place.
Explanation
The written record locates the task on another device but does not automatically retrieve that browser’s notes.
Find your question
- My laptop has notes but my phone does not. Are they browser-local rather than synced through an account?
- Reading history disappeared after private browsing. How should I keep a stable study entry point?
- Continue studying opens the last lesson but text and answer positions differ. What should I check?
- My notes disappeared after clearing browser data. Which important errors should I record going forward?
