Sync PS5™ consoles with cloud storage

You can automatically sync your saved data with cloud storage when you close a game or put your console in rest mode.

Cloud storage sync requires automatic updates to be enabled.

1. Go to Settings > System > Power Saving > Features Available in Rest Mode > Stay Connected to the Internet. 
2. Go to Settings > Saved Data and Game/App Settings, then select Saved Data (PS5) or Saved Data (PS4). 
3. For PS5 games, select Sync Saved Data > Auto-Sync Saved Data. 
4. For PS4 games, select Auto-Upload. 

For PS5 games, both your console and cloud storage will sync to the most recent data. For PS4™ games, data is automatically uploaded to your cloud storage, but will need to be manually downloaded to PS5 console storage.

Make the most of cloud storage

• Pick up play on a friend's system
  If you sign in to PlayStation™Network on a friend's PlayStation system, you can pick up from the last save on your online storage. 
• Upgrade/replacement
  If you get a new PlayStation console, just sign in to PlayStation Network and download your saved data. 

• Crossplay games
  These games can be downloaded and played on more than one type of PlayStation console. For example, if a game is compatible with both PS4 and PS Vita, you can start playing at home, upload your save, and continue later on your PS Vita. 
• PlayStation™Now
  If you subscribe to PlayStation Now and pick up a game that you previously played on PS4, you can start from the last point you saved to online storage.
