The VSCO iOS App currently has tools available that VSCO Studio on Web does not yet support. If you attempt to sync a draft from iOS with these edits on it, you will see a message that “Some edits are not yet supported”. If you continue syncing, the draft will be synced with all the edits. However, when viewing this draft on VSCO on desktop, only the supported edits will be shown.

After making additional edits on VSCO Studio on Web, you can return to the VSCO iOS App to see all previous and new edits.

Managing Your Synced Drafts

If you are not seeing a synced draft show up in your mobile Studio, check your network connection and be sure you are logged into the same account in both places.
How to filter synced Cloud Drafts in iOS Select the “Sort and Filter” option in the top left of the VSCO Studio. Here there are filters for “Synced” and “Not synced” that can be used to show only synced cloud drafts or only local drafts.

FAQs

Why is the “Sync to Cloud” button grayed out on iOS?

Video, Collage, and Montage drafts are not able to be synced to the VSCO Cloud at this time. If unsupported draft types are selected, the “Sync to Cloud” button will be disabled.

 What do I do if my draft is failing to sync to the VSCO Cloud?

Syncing to the VSCO Cloud requires a network connection, so make sure you have a good connection and retry the sync.

What happens if I edit a synced draft when I don’t have a network connection on the mobile app?

All changes you make will be saved, but the updates will not be synced until the next time you open the VSCO iOS app with a network connection.

I’m trying to open a synced draft on iOS and it’s stuck on “Downloading draft…”. How do I fix this?

Check your network connection. Synced drafts need to be downloaded first if they did not start on the platform you’re trying to access them on. If you do have a stable network connection, try force-quitting the app and trying again.

I’m running out of storage, how can I get more?

At this time, the only way to free up storage is to delete old drafts to make room for new ones. Please be sure to export a copy of any draft you want to keep before deleting.
