Cloud Save option in Web IDE

I've had two occasions where I lost all the code in my IDE due to a tab getting closed accidentally. In the options of the Web IDE, there's an option to "Save to Chrome's cloud when sending code to Device". If I turn that one, how can I recover/restore code that I just sent to a device? I don't see a 'read from cloud' command anywhere.

Hi Nik, I think that option might be for the Chrome app, which will be going away soon :(. However when you upload the IDE should save the code to a cookie.

Did you have more than one IDE tab open or something like an ad blocker that might be stopping it?

As part of the Kickstarter I'll be working on a proper cloud save based on login that'll be more reliable - just been a bit too busy getting Bangles out so far!
