Syncing between iOS 7 and iOS 8 devices using iCloud
eWallet’s built-in SyncPro® sync engine (included with eWallet® version 8 for iOS) allows you to sync between supported devices using the cloud. Normally you have the option of having eWallet use either iCloud or Dropbox for the syncing process; however, Apple’s new iOS 8 iCloud Drive feature is incompatible with its older iCloud Documents and Data supported in iOS 7. Bottom line: if you have iOS 8 everywhere, you can still use the iCloud option built-in to eWallet; if you have a mix of iOS versions though and have upgraded to iCloud Drive, you’ll need to use the Dropbox option.
If you have a mix of iOS 8 and iOS 7 devices, you can still sync, but you will need to switch to using Dropbox rather than iCloud within eWallet. To make the switch:
- With your wallet open on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, select the Cloud button at the bottom of eWallet
- Select the iCloud > button next to your wallet name (under Cloud Storage Service), and then switch the selection from iCloud to Dropbox
- Enter your Dropbox credentials into Dropbox login screen (you may get a second screen if you have two-factor authentication enabled)
- You will see a message about your wallet synchronizing, when that is complete, press Done
You now have a master copy of your wallet on Dropbox for future synchronization with this device, and if you like, other supported devices.
