Useless. I have written numerous emails to SplashID trying to get help with database sync and all they do is refer me to this video. First, I am not trying to sync an iPad and iPhone. Second, this video does not show how to add "Users" to the nice little drop down "User" menu, which this video shows to include iPad, iPhone, etc. My program does not let me add users unless they end in an email address extension. Switching to 1Password, which I should have done a long time ago. Bye SplashID.
This is a very poor demo video. Her voiceover does not sync with her cursor movements, which appear to be haphazard and poorly rehearsed. For the amount of money that SplashID charges for the iPad app, you would expect them to at least do a half decent job, but they have not bothered to do even that. The demo needs to be reworked, and the instructor needs to explain it in a step by step fashion, like how Apple does its demos.
Wow...wish I had known you had to be a rocket scientist to sync between your own devices BEFORE investing in this app and filling my iPad with all of my usernames and passwords! NOT for the average Joe!
Laura, database sync is confusing. Can I use the Splash Key to transfer between my iPhone and computer? But what can I do for my iPad? I agree with previous commenter that you need to make the sync process less confusing. I love the product except for the sync function.
The app has not got the entities quite right - confused among users / devices. You'd thing the use case in which one user has one laptop and multiple hand-held devices would be front and center. It's not. But once you beat back your intuition, it goes pretty smoothly.
I want to do this, but I have made a lot of custom icons and custom icons are not transferred. Custom icons do not even transfer when making a backup or export file and then importing either of those files into the second machine with the desktop application.
I've reported this to SplashData, and I received a response that they verified what I said and submitted a bug report.
Totally, completely useless. Do not buy any of these SplashID apps if you want to synch between devices. I have about 100 apps, this synch task makes SplashID the very worst. Again, do not waste your time or money!!!!!!
Continued...You need to compare the database file folders and look at the dates to be able to distinguish which database folder relates to the iPhone and which relates to the iPad.
I followed this video's instructions and was able to sync the SplashID database on my iPhone with my desktop database which then syncs with my iPad database upon exit. This ensures that all 3 installations remain in sync w/o a duplication of efforts. The only tricky thing in the video directions involves finding your iPad database location in Windows because it's not called iPad in the name of the folder or the file name.

Does the sync feature works between the iPad and the new "SplashID USB Key" ?
