breautek commented on issue #558: URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file/issues/558#issuecomment-2011996425 I believe syncedDataDirectory is working as intended here. The directly is synced with iCloud, which means users that backups their device can restore the app and the files for that app install. It doesn't mean that file will be synced across different devices. If it did, it's also the wrong way to do it (see last paragraph). When you install an iOS app, it will have an install ID, which is something that is randomly generated. These ids may not match across devices, even for the same app. This part I'm not really sure on, but I think syncedDataDirectory effectively links against an install id, rather than a bundle id, making the files synced to iCloud only accessible by the app install that put the files there. Synced directories in this context effectively means the files will be saved as part of itunes backups. Syncing files across devices I believe requires the use of [other APIs](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/documents_data_and_pasteboard/synchronizing_documents_in_the_icloud_environment?language=objc) that isn't really a File System based to manage documents on iCloud, and to resolve potential version conflicts, should remote have a version that local doesn't have, and local also has an update that remote doesn't have. This is something not exposed by the file plugin. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.

Faksprod commented on issue #558: URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file/issues/558#issuecomment-2011944309 @JamesIde: Unfortunately no (if you find how to make it works your feedback would be very much appreciated). I had to find an other way for saving/syncing file. I finally used [cordova-plugin-save-dialog](https://github.com/Amphiluke/cordova-plugin-save-dialog) which allow a user to save a file in the iOS File folder, then the user can choose the Cloud folder. Not the best experience for the user but it works... Good luck! -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
