Good morning,

I was wondering if wifi syncing with portable devices is in loop for future update ?
Thanks have a great week, kind regards Mathieu.

   This used to exist. It was replaced with Dropbox syncing... (which you can do over WiFi)...

   Hi Mathieu,

   I can see you’ve received a reply from one of our knowledgeable Moneydance customers. To add to this useful information I thought it's worth mentioning that you can refer to this article about "Syncing with Mobile App".

   I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions or need more assistance.

   Good afternoon,

   Yes got an answer but I was looking for a direct syncing via wifi without
   sharing data to a third party company, limiting privacy and security of my
   data.
    Without having my file stored on a third party server, a lot more greener.

   So my question is still open will we have the option to synchronise with
   wifi directly.

   Many thanks for your update, kind regards Mathieu.

   The option you have is to sync via a Shared Folder on your server. Then your data is private. But this will not work with portable devices.

   FWIW many years ago Moneydance did have a WiFi syncing option.

   It was problematic and it was found that support spent a great deal of time trying to deal with network configuration issues as many network are not set up to support peer to peer olutions. Networks though generally support Client/Server solutions however so the decision was decided to go that way with Dropbox support as well as shared folder and to retired direct WiFi syncing.
