Does my cover letter save automatically?
There is no save button. Your changes save on their own about two seconds after you stop typing, and the letter stays on your account so you can open it again later.
How saving works
- When
- About two seconds after your last change.
- What
- Every field, plus the template, colour and text size.
- Where
- On your account, so the letter opens on any device you sign in to.
- After download
- Saving stops, because a downloaded letter is read only.

Is there a version history?
No. The letter holds its current state only, so keep a copy of anything you may want back.
Can I work offline?
