Abstract
Technology for a method for backing up and restoring game application state across multiple devices is disclosed herein. The method includes receiving, by a storage server, state data of a game application that runs on a first device, retrieving, by the storage server, a synchronization scheme defined by a user, detecting, by the storage server, a second device connected with the storage server, and sending, by the storage server, the state data of the game application to the second device according to the synchronization scheme.
