Near as I can tell that’s not possible with the current implementation. It’s probably doable with a custom client, though you’d then have to solve your own synchronization problem.
IMO, this is the biggest hurdle to being able to comfortably talk about this as a serious option for my less tech-savvy friends. The idea that an app -wouldn’t- automatically sync between their desktop, phone, tablet, laptop, etc, etc, would be laughable to them.
To be fair, a lot of my friend’s only use their phones at this point, and I wonder how many of the younger generation is similar so it might not be as big an issue for them
Even if someone were to only use their phone, synchronization becomes important when they upgrade their device. Even if it’s as simple as backing up a folder to a dropbox analogue, that really should be handled by client software if the desire is widespread use.
If this were to get popular, I suppose someone might set up a web version with a cloud backend, but that’s trading quite a bit of privacy for convenience.
Is there a way to use the same account on multiple devices? I can remember it was a problem some time ago.

I think they’ve been researching ways to implement that, fingers crossed.
