Icloud does not backup Affinity…

[Nadar]

Hello everyone 

 

I selected icloud in the settings of my IPad but the Affinity Design docs are not not saved.

Does anyone have an explanation ?

Thanks

Hi Nadar,

So you've set the option in Preferences for the default save location to be iClould?  When you tap the Save icon, do you get an error at all?  If you could provide a screen recording showing the option in Preferences is set to iCloud and then save some something and using the Files app to check the iCloud>Affinity Designer folder.  That should help us see whats happening.  To record your screen on the iPad see this link

Hi Stokerg,

Thanks to your reply I got it !

I did not save the picture at each time ("save a copy") in the menu with the horny page icon on the top left. 

I did it and so it works.

So that means that one have not to forget to do it each time.

There is no automatic backup with Affinity, right ?

That's right, you need to press the save option in order to update the file saved in the Cloud  

You can either use Save a copy or use the flyout menu on the Home screen of Affinity.  If you see this video it covers the different methods of saving within Affinity
