How to Switch to iCloud Syncing (Call and Text Sync for iOS on a Mac)

If you have a Mac computer you can now sync your calls and texts to Cloze using iCloud instead of connecting to your iPhone. With this syncing option, you no longer need to connect over Wi-Fi or use a cable to sync your iPhone calls and texts with Cloze. And, you no longer have to enter your passcode each time a sync runs. 

There are a few steps to walk through to switch you over, but once you have switched your iPhone calls and texts will sync automatically in the background. Please walk through these steps in order. 

1. Confirm your computer is using the latest version of macOS (Sonoma).
2. Disconnect your existing iPhone connection (and choose "Remove and Keep History").
