Does Prompt 3 sync with Transmit or Nova?

Not currently. Due to the different server configurations possible in Transmit and Nova, we didn’t feel ready to sync them with Prompt 3. Among the questions we faced:

  • What if you have a WebDAV server in Transmit… do we hide it in Prompt?
  • What if there’s a group of hidden servers… do we hide the group?
  • What about reordering?

Too many “what-ifs” kept us from including this functionality in Prompt 3, but we’re definitely considering it for the future.

Is it possible to only sync some data types?

Right now, Panic Sync is all-or-nothing, but this is something we’d like to look into in an update to Panic Sync.
