  Skynamo will now download all your data to your device!


The initial sync is usually quite large, so please leave your device on charge and connected to a strong internet connection until the sync is completed. You would see it forms a little pie chart that needs to be filled up completely.


DISCLAIMER: You will need to fully complete this initial sync before you will be able to view your customers or any other information on your Skynamo app. Please also make sure the sync is completed before you start to do any work otherwise your sync might get stuck.


  You can also force a sync anytime by clicking Synchronize now.
