# v1.5.2 — Sync that respects every account

> Account switching now keeps each account's sync settings and keys cleanly separate, honest messaging when a script belongs to another account, and files built to welcome what's next.

<Warning>
  **Update: fixed in 1.5.3.** Versions 1.5.1 and 1.5.2 contained a bug that
  could crash Inkwell the moment it opened. Version **1.5.3** fixes it and is
  rolling out automatically — open **Inkwell → Check for Updates…** to grab it
  right away. If Inkwell won't open at all, reinstall from
  [inkwell.app/download](https://inkwell.app/download). Your scripts are files
  on your Mac — none of your writing was ever at risk.

## Highlights

If you ever sign in and out of different Inkwell accounts on the same Mac —
a personal account and a work one, or a test account for a collaboration —
this release makes that switch behave exactly the way you'd expect. Each
account now keeps its own sync choices and its own encryption keys, and
nothing about one account ever leaks into another.

*(This page covers both v1.5.1 and v1.5.2.)*

## Improved

* **Sync settings follow the account, not the machine.** Turning sync on
  (or declining it) is now remembered per account. A new account signing in
  on your Mac gets a fresh choice instead of inheriting someone else's.
* **Encryption keys are account-aware.** Switching accounts can never
  unlock a library with the wrong account's key — each account's key stays
  its own, and signing out still never erases anything.
* **Honest messaging for scripts from another account.** If a script on
  your Mac is synced by a different account, Inkwell now says so plainly —
  "Not in this account's cloud library" — and the button reads **Upload a
  new copy**, because that's what it does. Your words are always safe in
  the file on your Mac either way.

## Under the hood

* **Your files are ready for what's coming.** `.ink` files saved by this
  version now carry along any data added by future versions of Inkwell —
  so when upcoming features arrive, opening a script in an older copy of
  the app won't lose their work. (It's groundwork. Something's coming.)
