You can certainly have the same game on both devices, if the game is universal (that is, designed to run on both devices). Just set the game to sync when you connect your iPhone. You won't be able to see previous scores, take up a game in progress, etc, though, unless perhaps you restore the device from a backup of the other device each time you switch, something I don't consider practical, or the developer provides some way of synching data between devices.


Regards.

You can sync the saves between devices by using the Apple sharing through iTunes to copy save games (and other items) on and off from a device.


- Connect your iPod/iPad/iPhone to your computer

- Open iTunes, then select the device in the panel at the left

- Select 'Apps' then at the bottom you should notice an area called 'File Sharing'

- Select 'FM 2012' or 'FM 2011' (depending on which game you have) from the apps listed and you'll see a handful of files in the panel on the rightAny ".dat" files are saved games and you'll have up to 5 of them. "hidden.dat" is the autosave file, while "fm_save1.dat" through to "fm_save4.dat" are manually saved files named according to their position in the save slots.
