## 10) Can I use SponsorBlock on platforms other than PC?
Yes. Aside from the web browser extension, there are various third-party ports, including mobile. See the list [here](https://github.com/ajayyy/SponsorBlock/wiki/3rd-Party-Ports).
## 11) How can I sync my Vanced stats with my PC stats?
Warning: You can only keep one userID, so decide if you want to keep the PC stats or the Vanced stats. Keep a backup of your private userID in a secure location. If you want to keep your PC stats, you have to reverse the process.
For looking at your Vanced stats:
* In Vanced click on your usericon, settings, SponsorBlock settings, there go to "your unique userID"
* Copy the string and send it to your PC
* Click in your browser on the SponsorBlock icon in your toolbar, go to options. Scroll down to "Import/Export your UserID"
## 11) How can I transfer my Vanced userID to the desktop extension?
Warning: You can only keep one userID, so decide if you want to keep the your extension userID or your Vanced userID. Keep a backup of your private userID in a secure location. If you want to transfer your extension user to Vanced, you will have to reverse the process.
To transfer your userID from Vanced to the extension:
* In Vanced click on your user icon -> settings -> SponsorBlock settings -> "your unique userID"
* Copy this string and save it somewhere
* In your browser, click on the SponsorBlock icon in your toolbar and click on options
* Scroll down to "Import/Export your UserID"
* Back up the current userID and save it somewhere safe in case you want to switch back to it
* Paste your userID there and confirm the changes
* You are now able to see your Vanced stats in the popup in the toolbar, furthermore you can see which segments you added in the database
* Your userID is now transferred. The popup will show stats based on what you have submitted from Vanced.
## 12) Can I create skip segments just for myself?
Yes. If you wish to have skip segments for your personal use, not caring about the rules, just select the timestamps and close the editing box. Make sure not to click "submit". They will be stored locally in your browser and skipped automatically. You can also export them with your options.
