A '''browser synchronizer''' is a feature of [[web browser]]s that enables the sharing of certain settings and data across multiple installs. For example, when a user adds a [[bookmark (digital)|bookmark]], the synchronizer will make it available to their browser on a different device. The user must be logged-in to an online account for each synchronized browser.
