Dropbox Sync

[Darren Wheatley]

Hi,

Having some experience with Dropbox I'm concerned about having field level(?) sync between my devices via Dropbox. Other apps I've used that attempt the same have had tricky data collision problems resulting in duplication / lost data.

Is this using a field level sync, or a file level sync? What happens if there are collisions?

Regards

Darren.

Reunion 11 and ReunionTouch make very little use of any syncing technology provided by Dropbox. Instead, Reunion uses a proprietary syncing technology that we developed specifically for Reunion 11 and ReunionTouch.

A data collision would happen if the exact same field for the same person were modified at the same time. In that case the most recent modification would be used for that field.
