Legacy iCloud connection For an existing Apple ID workspace
Use this connection if your existing lists belong to an iCloud workspace. It stays separate from your Laowai account. Use the same Apple ID as the app; app sync requires Laowai Pro.

Data and privacy
Connecting opens a separate study library for your Apple ID. Browser-only lists, progress and texts are added only when you choose to merge them. Answers save locally before syncing; pending changes retry when you reconnect.
Sync updates vocabulary, study progress and personal texts and books in the app’s private iCloud data. Chosen practice and reading preferences sync with the app. Grammar progress syncs with app versions that support the shared grammar format; update every syncing device and sync once in the app first. Other settings and structured course progress are preserved. Text edits merge by their last saved date. Text removal in older app versions does not sync. This page does not load website analytics. Account data stays cached after disconnecting. To remove it, use the cache button before disconnecting or clear this site’s browser data.
