Re: [MLO] Sync View w/ Cloud

[Lisa Stroyan]

unfortunately, no. However you can export them, put them on a thumb drive, and import them.

I'm using MLO with MLO Cloud to keep my work PC, Android phone, iPhone, iPad, and home PC sync'ed and up to date.  Most of the time I use my work PC and Android phone but was frustrated tonight on my home PC because the views I set up at work are not sync'ed to my home PC.  Is it possible to sync views with MLO cloud?

Any chance this has changed and we can sync views via the cloud... seems like a logical feature to match with cloud sync of data...

I think that the views sync should be a must for this app, included the Mobile devices. This is the biggest issue I currently have on this wonderful app: as a matter of fact I MUST use it only on desktop PCs and only syncing via Dropbox and only by paying attention to close the app on the work PC before opening it on the home one and viceversa.
It seems as the developer did never really used the application on several devices at the same time; if so, this fact could have immediately come in evidence.
I hope that this aspect will be fixed in the future, if so I will be very happy, and I think also a lot of people.
Thank you very much for the attention.
Best regards.

Hello Lisa,
Yes, the file can be exported and imported, but it is not truly syncd in that any new entries will not exist on both sides, accurate? It is a one time upload "as is" until imported / exported from both desktop and mobile again? If addurate, this could become VERY confusing as there would be two versions of the same view, or are they syncd if using the MLO cloud, but only under the circumstance that one DOES pay for the MLOCloud?

Thank you

There is no possibility to sync view in MLO now. We do not plan to add automated views sync via cloud in the nearest future. However, we are considering alternatives that would allow to easily update views on all devices.
In the meanwhile, use the following guide to transfer views from PC to mobile and back: https://www.mylifeorganized.net/support/export-custom-views-from-desktop-to-mobile-ios/ (for iOS) and https://www.mylifeorganized.net/support/export-custom-views-from-desktop-to-mobile-android/ (for Android). You may use third party cloud storage (like Dropbox of Google Drive) that is accessible from both platforms. You may create a folder called "MLO Views" and store all your views there and update them there to avoid different versions of the view.

Sorry, I am confused by this conversation. Ms. Boats wrote "any new
entries will not exist on both sides" - This sounds to me, more like a
discussion of new tasks added to one side and not the other, as opposed
to new views created on one side but not the other. I believe that some
users, possibly including Ms. Boats, have the mistaken impression that
if views are not synched they will become out-of-date snapshots.

In order tro clarify this, I would suggest:
If you are using either cloud sync or IP sync, all tasks, projects and
folders will be synched. If you add or change any task on one side it
will be synched to the other side.

If you have invented a new view, for example "due tomorrow" and you copy
it to all your platforms and you are synching your TASKS, then your
views should stay pretty well synchronized. For example, if you add a
new task that's dur tomorrow it will show up iin your "due tomorrow"
view. If your tasks get synched, then the new task will show up on your
other device, where it will also immediately show up in the Due Tomorrow
view. You don't need to synch the view to accomplish this.

Where view synchronization comes in handy would be if you change the
view definition. For example, suppose you change "due tomorrow" to "due
on or before tomorrow" then any tasks due today and any overdue tasks
will immediately be added to the view. But on your other device, the
view is still "due tomorrow" and it will not show tasks due today.

The good news is that once a new user has a chance to work out the views
that he or she needs, there is usually not a lot of changes to view
definitions. And when there is a change, it is a pretty simple matter to
copy it over to the other device.
