# Watch any name across every device — and get emailed before it drops

Your ENS.Tools watchlist now syncs to your wallet, so it follows you across browsers and devices instead of living in one browser. Plus opt-in email alerts for expiries and grace periods.

A watchlist is only useful if it is there when you need it. Until now, the ENS.Tools watchlist lived in your browser’s local storage — clear your cache or switch to your phone and it was gone. Two changes fix that: the watchlist now **syncs to your wallet**, and you can turn on **email alerts** so a name never slips into grace without you knowing.

## A watchlist that follows you

When your wallet is connected, everything you add to your [watchlist](/saved?view=watchlist) is saved to the cloud, keyed to your address. Open ENS.Tools on another device, connect the same wallet, and your list is already there. We merge intelligently on connect — the most recently touched version of each entry wins — so nothing gets clobbered, and local storage stays as a fast cache so the UI is still instant offline.

Not connected? Nothing changes — the watchlist works exactly as before, just for that browser. Connecting simply lifts it into the cloud.

## Email alerts, double opt-in

Head to [notification settings](/manage/alerts) to add an email address. We send a one-time confirmation link before anything else is ever delivered — no unsolicited mail, and you can unsubscribe at any time. Once confirmed, you get a digest as your watched and owned names approach expiry, so you have time to renew before a name enters its grace period.

Under the hood, a scheduled job scans upcoming expiries daily and writes a per-wallet notification inbox; a separate delivery worker emails the digest to verified addresses. Alerts are derived entirely from public on-chain state.

## Try it

Add a few names to your [watchlist](/saved?view=watchlist), connect your wallet to sync them, then confirm an email in [settings](/manage/alerts) to turn on expiry alerts.
