Sync between devices

katelyn_designs — Sun, 21 Sep 2025 08:08:45 GMT

Hi everyone,

I’m having an issue with syncing all my items between my iPad and iPhone. I created a whole bunch of items on my phone but they’re not synced to my iPad now. Is there a way I can force sync or something?

I thought that the same items would be synced within the same account even if on different devices…

Thanks in advance!

Hey @katelyn_designs,

Welcome to our community, I noticed it's your first post!

When you get a chance, please try signing in, and out of your account, and let us know if the items sync across then. If you have multiple locations, it's also worth checking that you're signed in to the same location on both devices. You can check this on your app by heading to More > Settings > Account. Please let us know how you go 🙂

Hey Arie,

Thanks!

No luck unfortunately! I tried signing out, closing the app, then reopening and signing in and no change

Looks like both devices are logged into the same location. I don’t have more than one, I don’t think

Thanks for giving these steps a try, @katelyn_designs! Can you check if both applications on the most up to date version available?

Hi Arie,

I just updated on both devices and now it has deleted all my new items from both devices.

I have also had the same problems. I did all of the things suggested and it still isn’t working.

How did you solve this?
