A practical checklist

  1. Confirm important work on the old device has synchronized before relying on remote copies.
  2. Sign in on the new device with a connection and complete authorized farm downloads.
  3. Check a field history, maintenance history, and relevant image before going offline.
Illustrative recordA worked example

The old phone has a pending harvest entry. The farmer first lets it synchronize, then completes downloads on the new phone. The new device can only obtain remote work that has actually reached the server.

What to avoid

Do not erase the old device while it holds the only unsynchronized copy. Offline retention on one phone is not a cross-device backup.
