> Your application saves as you type. Sign in again on the fund's portal, on any device, to pick up where you stopped. Nothing is sent until you choose to.

## Key takeaways

- Your answers save automatically a moment after you stop typing. The line under the progress bar shows when they last saved.
- To come back, sign in on the fund's portal with the same email and open the application. You land on the same draft.
- Saving never sends anything. The fund receives your application only when you tap Send application.
- If a save fails, Delsivo keeps trying, and you can tap Retry now.

Your application saves as you type, a moment after you stop. To come back, sign in on the fund's portal with the same email, on any device, and open the application again. You land on the same draft, with every answer and your deck. Nothing reaches the fund until you tap **Send application**.

## Check that it saved

The line under the progress bar tells you:

| What you see | Meaning |
|---|---|
| **Your answers save as you type** | Nothing to save yet |
| **Saving…** | Your latest change is on its way |
| **Saved just now**, **Saved 2 minutes ago** | Everything up to then is saved |
| **Not saved yet. We will keep trying.** | The save failed, often a connection problem. Tap **Retry now**, or wait |
| **This application changed in another tab.** | You edited it somewhere else too. Tap **Load the latest** to see the newest answers |
| **You were signed out. Sign in again to keep going; your answers are saved.** | Tap **Sign in again** |

If you try to close the page while a change is still unsaved, your browser asks first.

Your deck is saved to the draft as soon as its upload finishes. See [Upload your pitch deck](/help/applying/uploading-your-deck).

## Come back later

1. Open the fund's portal and sign in. See [Signing in to a fund's portal](/help/applying/signing-in).
2. Tap the apply button, or open your workspace: it shows **Your application is in progress** with the date of your last change. Tap **Continue your application**.
3. You're back in your draft.

The address keeps the step you're on, so refreshing the page or going back doesn't lose your place.

To keep the link handy, tap **Copy resume link** under the progress bar. The link opens the application; you still sign in with your email.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I continue on another device?
Yes. Sign in with the same email on the other device. Your draft is saved with the fund's portal, not in your browser.

### Does the fund see my draft?
A draft isn't an application. It appears in the fund's list only after you tap **Send application**.

### What if I work in two tabs?
Only one copy can save at a time. The other tab shows **This application changed in another tab.** Tap **Load the latest** there before you carry on.

### The fund closed its portal while I was filling it in. Is my work lost?
No. Your answers stay saved, but you can't save or send until the fund opens the portal again.
