I've got a file that I've been using on my laptop, but now have it on my iPhone.  I travel a lot, and sometimes don't have internet when I need to use this, and as I understand it, the file either has to be on a server, or live on my device, so the on my device option it is.  Here's where the problem comes in.  If I want to make changes to the version that's on my phone, that has to be done in Pro on my computer, which I did, and then sent a saved copy of the file to my phone.  How to I make changes to the phone version going forward?

And just to double check what I've been told.  When I set this up for my phone, I had the phone connected with a USB cable, and as I made changes, I could see it on my phone.  Is there no way to connect it to USB and have it sync the data from the phone to the file on the laptop?

You need might be met by using this tool:

...or mongoDB as backbone approached with MonkeyBread Plugin in a runtime at each device involved.
