The present disclosure describes systems and methods for automatic synchronization of recently modified data between a plurality of devices. A device may identify newly utilized files stored on the device, and a synchronization engine may synchronize these files to one or more additional devices. The synchronization engine may record a storage location of the files on the first device, and may transmit the files for storage in a hidden directory on the other devices. After modification, a file may be synchronized back to the initial device. The synchronization engine on the initial device may retrieve the storage location of the modified file, and may replace the previous version of the file with the newly received modified file, in the original storage location. The user may view and edit recently utilized files on any device, while maintaining their original storage locations on each device and without having to manually manage files.
