Syncing

Use iCloud sync between Apple devices

iCloud sync is an Apple-client data feature. It is separate from BoxPlayer sign-in and does not copy your movies to every device.

Platforms

iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV; this is not an iCloud workflow for Android or Electron.

01Check the Apple account

Confirm the same iCloud account in system settings and allow BoxPlayer to use iCloud. Check available storage and network access.

02Enable sync in BoxPlayer

Open the sync settings, check iCloud status, and enable syncing. Initial changes can take time; do not repeatedly delete sources while waiting.

03Check one item

Check a watch record or supported setting on another device. Source credentials, folder permissions, and network reachability remain separate requirements. If an account change pauses sync, restore the original account first.

Before you finish

  • Apple accounts match
  • iCloud is available
  • The source is reachable on the other device
