Hi,
I finally got my database onto my iPhone 15 using a backup of my database on my Mac, and restoring it to TapForms Pro on my phone. Other methods just weren’t working. Once it was installed, I turned on Nearby Sync on both my Mac and my iPhone. My phone started syncing (Great), but then it never stopped. In fact it’s still syncing, but because there isn’t a progress indicator or other status, I have no idea what it is doing. I’m able to check a few records I had changed on my Mac after the back up was made, and I see those changes on my phone, but I literally made two minor changes, so I don’t understand why the syncing continues…

Did you enable Nearby Sync on both devices at the same time? Or did you do one device, wait for it to finish the initial sync setup and then enable the other one?
For Nearby Sync, Tap Forms must go through a baselining process whenever you add a device. It basically copies over all the data from the other device and compares and merges the data into a single combined source. It does that for both devices and for each time you add a new device. Eventually it settles down and syncs just the changes.
The Cloud+ Sync service does not have to go through all of that.
How big is your document? The larger they are, the longer it will take.
Yes, I turned on Nearby at the same time. Should I turn it off on my phone, and wait? The document is 403 megabytes.
