Sync in Style – Using GoodSync on your iPhone 6

Are you an iOS user? If so, you can enjoy the benefits of GoodSync on your computer and mobile devices. Here’s how it works:

GoodSync Server for iOS makes your device discoverable from any other computer running GoodSync or GoodSync Explorer. Once installed, simply connect your devices using GoodSync Connect and you can:

• Connect from any computer on your local network, or anywhere on the Internet to an iOS device.
• Sync files between a computer and iOS device.
• Upload or download files to/from your computer to your iOS device.

Installing GoodSync for iOS

Head over to the App Store and search for GoodSync. Install GoodSync Server. It should be the only result, but in case that's changed, just make sure the publisher is Siber Systems Inc.

You need to have GoodSync installed on a computer before you can sync files from your Android. Getting your phone to be recognized is easiest if you set up GoodSync Connect credentials, which you can set up when you connect. Enter these in the app and your computer will be able to recognize your phone.

Proceed to your desktop and list GoodSync Connect computers (servers) in GoodSync or GoodSync Explorer. Your iOS device will appear. You can sync with it, download files from it and upload files to it. You can also rename, delete and copy files and folders.
