Is there a way to view or list all the devices connected when using Nearby Sync?
Also, where are the Document changes for each device stored?
Thanks!
There’s no function to get the list of devices other than sniffing your network. I simplified it this time so it’s not necessary to keep a list of devices anymore. They’ll just sync when they see the device with the same document appear on the network.
I use an app called Discovery for sniffing the network when I want to see what devices are syncing.
This app is great for that:

Oh, forgot the second part of your question.
There’s 3 places that stores the data. First is the main database document. Second, inside the database document is an Ensembles sync datastore. Third is a sync cache for multi-peer. You can find that here:
~/Library/Containers/Tap Forms Pro/Data/Library/Caches/Sync/Multipeer/db-.... where db-.... is the document ID of your document that’s had Nearby sync enabled on it.
Very useful feedback as usual!
Many Thanks Brendan!
One more follow up question. If I delete and replace the existing Document on the connected Mac, iPads & iPhones, are the Library Sync Caches on the connected devices cleared or replaced? If not is there any way to clear the Caches on the iPads and iPhones?
