Sync multiple PCs to Exist

While syncing the overall tracking database is a tricky one without a central server (because a core design value for Foreground is not sending all your data to someone else), it would be a lot easier to sync your Exist attributes from multiple Foreground clients by making Exist have a server-side integration for Foreground so it can handle multiple Foreground clients and sum all the totals across them. I think this would solve the issue for many folks and as it’s much more viable than the full sync, I think as a compromise it’s worth doing.

    Foreground can now sync totals collected across multiple PCs. You’ll need to upgrade to this new method from Foreground settings to take advantage. Make sure that all your Foreground clients are upgraded at once, or totals will be incorrect.

    Note: There’s no need to upgrade your Exist connection if you’re only running Foreground on a single PC and you don’t need the benefits, but the old method is now deprecated and if you ever disconnect it, you’ll need to use the new method to reconnect.
