New Cloud Sync Technology
The Cloud Sync Technology has been replaced with a new technology called Ensembles. This is a proven technology that dramatically enhances the reliability of our Sync. In addition, it provides the means to sync your information between different iCloud Accounts. Ultimately, you will be able to sync data from Mac, Web and other platforms. This will be available in future releases.
Sync Data in Cloud AND on the Device
Business information is saved both on your device and in the Cloud. If there is a problem with the Cloud your data is always maintained and backed up on your device. This is a huge advantage over the prior technology that could only view the Cloud data after the device was synced.
Sync Devices on Different iCloud/Apple Accounts
Now it is possible to use Cloud Services that can sync information on devices using different iCloud/Apple accounts. This is another major advantage over the previous sync technology which would only sync devices using the same iCloud account.
Dropbox and CloudKit Sync Services
Both of these services are available to sync information between devices using different iCloud accounts. A Dropbox free Dropbox account must be setup prior to using this service. If the devices are using different Apple accounts then the app may need to purchased by the other users. However, the one-time fee is a much better value than the monthly fees other apps charge.
Privileges
Privileges are used to establish different types of access to your business data when you have employees or others using your app. Privilege types range from full access for owners, partners and financial managers, to limited access for those employees that are making service calls and completing work.
For example employees can be restricted to only their transactions and you can allow only the viewing to changing of invoices and estimates.
Dark Mode Support
Color schemes and icons have been redesigned in iPhone and iPad views to now support dark mode . Check it out!
