Frequently Asked Questions
Honest answers about HJdrivesync security, BYOK credentials, transfer modes, plan limits, Shared Drives, referrals, and refunds.
What is Hjdrivesync?
Hjdrivesync is a high-speed, server-to-server Google Drive file and folder cloner. It transfers files directly between Google accounts without utilizing any of your local internet bandwidth or download quota.
Is it secure to link my Google Account?
Yes. Hjdrivesync uses a 'Bring Your Own Key' (BYOK) model. You create your own OAuth credentials in the Google Cloud Console, meaning you are in complete control of the application access. We never see your password, and tokens are stored securely in an encrypted database.
Will this use my local internet bandwidth?
No. All transfers are executed server-to-server directly through Google's APIs. You can start a transfer and close your browser; the process will continue in the background at extremely high speeds. Browser Mode still runs in your tab so you can watch progress, but file bytes go Google-to-Google, not through your home connection.
What happens if I reach my daily limit?
If you hit your plan's daily limit, the transfer will pause. You can either wait for the limit to reset at midnight (UTC) or upgrade your plan to increase your quota.
Can I transfer files to Team Drives (Shared Drives)?
Yes, provided the Google account you linked has 'Contributor' or higher permissions on the destination Team Drive.
How do I create Google Cloud credentials?
Create a Google Cloud project, enable the Google Drive API, configure an External OAuth consent screen in Testing mode, add every Gmail you will link as a Test User, then create a Web application OAuth client. The only Authorized Redirect URI you need is https://hjdrivesync.hjcyberx.com/api/auth/callback. The setup guide walks through each click.
What is the difference between Browser Mode and Server Mode?
Browser Mode is best for large nested folders: it lists and copies items with a live progress bar in your tab. Server Mode is best for large single files: our servers continue the copy after you close the browser. Both use Google APIs and your BYOK credentials.
Which plans are available and what do they include?
Free is 5 GB per month (2 GB daily, 1 Google account, ads). Lite is 50 GB / 15 GB daily / 2 accounts. Pro is 500 GB / 100 GB daily / 3 accounts. Team is 2000 GB / 650 GB daily / 10 accounts. Lifetime is a one-time purchase with unlimited monthly quota, a 650 GB daily cap, and 10 accounts. Paid plans are ad-free. Yearly billing is 50% off the monthly rate.
Does the free plan show ads?
Yes. The free plan is ad-supported. Paid Lite, Pro, Team, and Lifetime plans hide ads in the app.
Do you offer refunds?
Yes, we offer a 14-day no-questions-asked money-back guarantee. If you are not satisfied, email support@hjcyberx.com within 14 days of purchase with your account email and transaction reference.
How does the referral program work?
After you connect Drive, open Referrals and share your unique link. When a friend signs up through that link, you both receive 500 MB extra monthly transfer quota for 30 days. The bonus stacks per successful referral.
What is Drive Manager?
Drive Manager is a signed-in file browser for a linked Google Drive. You can upload, rename, move, trash, restore, preview common file types, and use browser-side ZIP tools. File bytes go directly between your browser and Google — they do not pass through HJdrivesync servers.
