Datablist uses a database inside your web browser to store your data. And this database is synced in the cloud (check Pricing). This local database is the reason Datablist is fast. The application doesn't fetch data every time from the server. Sometimes, Datablist can't store data in your web browser. This can happen for several reasons:
- A setting in your web browser blocks sites from saving data on your device.
- A privacy setting, extension, or browser profile prevents Datablist from writing to IndexedDB, the browser database used by Datablist.
- Your browser storage quota is full. For example, Chrome and Chromium-based browsers limit how much disk space web applications can use.
- Your operating system (Windows, MacOs, etc.) has reached a system limit and must be rebooted.
How to fix it?
The error message shown by Datablist can help identify the cause.
If the message says to allow site data or disable privacy settings:
- Check your browser site data configuration. See the Chrome instructions below.
- Disable browser extensions that block cookies, storage, or tracking, then refresh Datablist.
- Try Datablist in another browser profile.
If the message says to free up disk space or remove site data:
- Check that your hard drive has free space.
- Remove unused site data from your browser.
If the issue continues:
- Restart your browser.
- Reboot your computer.
Check Chrome configuration
If the issue persists, check the "site data settings" to know if Datablist is allowed to store data.
Open a new tab and enter chrome://settings/content/siteData.
If the default behavior is to not allow sites to save data, you must create an exception for Datablist.
Click on the "Add" button next to the "Allowed to save data on your device" section. And add [*.]datablist.com.
