Dots has a cloud computer; cloud work can continue when your devices are off.

Editorial analysis for Mac workflows

For a Mac storage decision, first identify where the task and its output actually live. A file downloaded to the Mac and a cloud artifact need different checks. Our recommendation is to review the local copy, its owner and any sync relationship before deciding whether it is disposable. A task being complete does not prove its files are expendable.

Messaging, app connections and computer access are separate connections.

Editorial analysis for Mac workflows

Keep task completion and disk cleanup as separate decisions. Record the intended output location when delegating work; later compare that location with what is actually on disk. If you cannot identify a file, leave it in place. This is a workflow recommendation, not a tested Dots cleanup procedure.

Not verified by our team
