How to Sync Data Without Google Account - Ungoogled Chromium

You can sync data without a Google account by using Ungoogled Chromium, a privacy-focused browser that strips out all Google dependencies and lets you manage your own sync solution.

Ungoogled Chromium 144.0.7559.132 removes Google's tracking infrastructure entirely, so there's no built-in account requirement. Here's how to handle syncing locally instead of relying on Google's servers.

Set Up Local Sync Methods

Since Ungoogled Chromium doesn't connect to Google services, you'll need alternatives. Export your bookmarks manually: hit Ctrl+Shift+B to open the Bookmark Manager, then click the three-dot menu and select "Export bookmarks." Save as an HTML file. Passwords can be exported similarly through Settings > Passwords > three-dot menu > Export passwords (requires your device password for security).

For syncing across devices without a Google account, use third-party tools like Syncthing or Nextcloud. These sync your browser profile folders across computers entirely offline. Just point them to your Ungoogled Chromium profile directory (usually ~/.config/chromium on Linux or AppData\Local\Ungoogled Chromium on Windows).

Why Choose Ungoogled Chromium

This open-source browser has 26,153 GitHub stars because it solves a real problem: Chromium-based speed without Google surveillance. Available for Windows and Linux, it's totally free. No tracking, no forced accounts, no ads pushing you toward a Google login.

The trade-off? You lose cloud sync convenience. But you gain privacy and control. Your bookmarks, passwords, and browsing data stay on your devices only.

Quick Recommendation

If syncing data without Google account is your priority, Ungoogled Chromium works perfectly alongside free sync tools. Manual exports take two minutes and give you complete ownership. Perfect for privacy-conscious users who'd rather manage their own data infrastructure.
