Summary

LinkSync synchronizes visited links, and shows this as a red link on other devices.

All data is 1-way encrypted (hashed) by the client, so this plugin is very secure.

Check the options page to choose colors.

FAQ: Q: Why doesn't this plugin work on google.com? A: Turn off Google Instant in the search settings

Q: Why doesn't this plugin work on a few links? A: Some links are redirects, only the page you land at is stored. So if a link leads to m.google.com and you get redirected to google.com, only google.com is stored in the history.

User reviews
I am writing to share details of my recent experience with Lync Sync. I engaged Lync Sync to allow me to sync between my point of sales system (Vend) and Woo Commerce. It was apparent almost immediately that there were serious issues with Lync Sync’s software. We contacted Lync Sync who assured us that the issues were able to be resolved. Six weeks later, not only were the issues not resolved, the issues led to major problems with my business’ website. This meant that we had to shut down the site for a substantial period of time which disturbed our online sales. In addition to the problems with the software, the support offered was terrible. The icing on the cake was the fact that after being assured that I would receive a full refund, I was then told that management had determined that I would only receive a partial refund. I would not recommend dealing with this company. I was very dissatisfied with the software and the service provided and I would encourage others to take their service elsewhere (I am currently using Ant and have had no problems).
