It is important to sync your data regularly. During sync, data is backed up to the server and latest data stored on the server is downloaded to the device.

The latest version of the Fillet iOS app will warn you if a database on the device has unsynced data. In this case, it is recommended that you promptly backup and sync the database.
Fillet for iOS and iPadOS, version 2.4.6

In previous versions, the Fillet iOS app used a “background sync” system. This meant that the app would sync data on an automated interval of 5 minutes. There was no option to immediately begin a data sync.

In the latest version (version 2.4.6), the Fillet iOS app uses a “manual sync” system. This new "manual system" has replaced the old "background sync" system.

Now you can sync data any time, for any database where you have access.

You can sync a database and make it the “Currently open” database on the device. Or you can sync a database to open later.
You can also see a details about your sync progress, which makes it easier to troubleshoot problems like a bad internet connection.
