pwSafe uses iCloud Drive for syncing. All safes stored inside the pwSafe folder in iCloud Drive will be available on both the Mac app and the iOS app. To make sync work, please open the settings app (iOS) or the system preferences app (Mac), navigate to the iCloud section, and check that:
- You are using the same Apple-ID (email address) to log on to ICloud on all your devices
- That iCloud Drive is enabled (including the pwSafe-specifc sub-option)
- On iOS devices, that you are connected to Wi-Fi or cellular data is enabled for iCloud Drive:
- To enable sync over cellular: check Settings - Cellular
- Scroll to section CELLULAR DATA
- Check that both Files and iCloud Drive (this one is listed separately beneath all other apps) are enabled
Macs and iOS devices can take time to download all your files from iCloud Drive servers. If they get stuck, rebooting usually fixes the problem. If not, then please:
- Turn pwSafe off inside iCloud Drive, inside iCloud settings (system preferences on the Mac, settings app on iOS).
- Reboot
- Turn it back on
Ensure that your safe is stored in the correct iCloud folder. Follow these steps to sync your safe across devices:
- Open the Files app on your iPhone.
- Navigate to the iCloud Drive.
- Locate the pwSafe sub-folder, which should have the app's icon.
- Move your safe file into this pwSafe iCloud folder.
Once your safe is in the pwSafe iCloud folder, it will automatically appear on all your devices using the same Apple ID. This ensures that your password data is synchronized and accessible across your iPhone, iPad and Mac.
