## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Cozy Cloud (Twake Workplace) you would be making files kept in step across devices without losing one. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It costs $53.63 a year. Cozy Cloud (Twake Workplace) is open source, so there is a third way: take its code and run it yourself.

- You could make: Notes: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Files kept in step across devices without losing one.
- You could not: A password vault, the last thing anyone should make for themselves.
- You could not: Storing and serving files for other people.
- You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
