Freeform across devices

Why wont freeform share across my devices? I have allowed in settings for both my iPad and Mac via my icloud account but they are still not sharing. i cant even send a project to my Mac because when I do I get this message.

This is all very frustrating because I like the app but its just not working for me. Help please!

iMac 24″, macOS 13.2

Hello Gemlilies,


Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities.


Our understanding is that you're not seeing the Freeform documents you created on all of your devices. We'd like to help.


Follow the steps below for help with sharing across all your Apple devices.


"Start on your iPad, keep working on your Mac

The Freeform boards you store in iCloud—and any changes you make to them—stay up to date on all your Apple devices when you’re signed in with the same Apple ID. To use iCloud with Freeform, go to Settings  > [your name] > iCloud > Show All (below Apps Using iCloud), then turn on Freeform."

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, it does not answer my issue as I have turned Freeform on via iCloud on both my iPad and iMac as per instructions and have even rebooted both devices. However, I still get the message as per the above image and no synching between devices. I am at a loss as to what to do. Is there a glitch in the app that needs the developer's attention?
