of course this is a great idea and we are also aware of this feature
request, but as it is not a trivial task to implement such a feature
we usually prefer to add other features first (like pregnancy support,
coverline in graph, more fertility awareness algorithms, etc.) which
are useful on a single phone too.
However, we are open to change feature priorities, so we encourage all
users to vote for this (or other feature) if they also think that this
feature should be implemented next ;)

The idea gets my vote!
I think it would be a good enticement for anyone on the fence about going to the pro version. Even if we had to have a pro version for the second phone, I would do it.
Question: to the people who think sync should be bought rather than subscribed to: how does the ongoing costs of the sync server get paid for?
A one off fee isn't a sustainable business model for a service with ongoing costs that increase with more users. An app will still work for existing users without maintenance but a server that isn't paid for every year doesn't keep running.

Really hope there will be a solution which keeps the app stand alone and without subscription... I believe this app gains for more in new users & market share with this feature and perhaps an added (pro-shared) upgrade level than pushing a separate website and subscription. Has a cloud-based data store for syncing been considered (with primary and guest user access accounts)? The app could poll the cloud server at start-up to check for latest data and at set intervals to assure a current data set on the server. I have a grocery list app that does something similar: http://www.mightygrocery.com/shopping-list-app-users-guide/cloud-sync-list-and-backup/ (sorry if link is not allowed - not endorsing, just sharing an idea by way of an example). Although they limit permissions for the guest, I would think all permissions could be configured by the developer based on what they want to achieve for the user(s).

And I totally agree with freegrace4's idea.
But I really think that using a "cloud" would be more interesting...

I primarily use my phone & don't always have data/wifi access.
Can you explain what is ment by limited offline use & hiow that could affect me?

And a yearly fee or the dropbox / Google possibility would be nice :-)
Do you have a date for such a release?
Oh and by the way will there be the possibility again to Export io older cycle images? Mine are empty now except the last two...
Thanks :-)
One-way sync can be done through the backup/restore. But the ability for us both to enter data would be amazing.
Bdw - CONGRATULATIONS for such an amazing app! I am a developer and was looking for an app like this, even thinking to develop one myself. When I found OvuView, the need was satisfied! It has everything my wife and me wanted, and more! Not to forget the good appearance.
Compliments to the team!

Thank you!
