We’ve also discovered that Chrome’s memory-saving settings might be stopping your auto sync from running — especially if you leave your third-party platform tab open and unattended.
By default, Chrome puts inactive tabs to sleep, which can pause the auto sync process in the background. If you’ve ever seen a “sync not running” message, this might be the culprit.
Open Chrome Settings. Click the three dots in the top-right corner of Chrome, then go to Settings.
Go to Performance Settings. Scroll to Always keep these sites active. Click Add.
Whitelist your third-party platform dashboard. Enter your platform URL. This ensures Chrome doesn’t suspend the tab. Click Add to confirm the change. Make sure your URL now appears in the “Always Active” list.
And that’s how you can prevent Chrome from interrupting your automatic data sync!
