INFO: iCloud sync/backup
Last Updated:
eWallet 7.3 and later for iOS features built-in support for iCloud, both for backing up wallets and for sharing wallets between iOS devices using iOS 5 and newer. Starting with eWallet 8 on iOS, iCloud uses our SyncPro sync engine to do full card-level synchronization.
Although iCloud sync support is not available for eWallet on Windows PC, we offer Cloud Sync via Dropbox on the PC, Mac, Android and iPhone & iPad versions of eWallet
Before you start setting up iCloud sync for your iOS devices, we recommend you use the “Email Wallet Backup” feature (More menu) to send a backup copy of your encrypted wallet file to yourself over email.
