Hello Josh, is there any way to delete duplicates and old devices?

Yeah this would be nice. It should act the same as Safari, in that it deletes devices that haven't had activity for the past seven days.

unicron commented 9 years ago

Agreed! I've got a long list of devices after installing beta versions of iOS.

Hello,

I have the same problem. Many old devices in the list... Any way how to delete it? I.e. from some configuration file?

Thanks.

I don't think the issue is with CloudyTabs but rather with iCloud. CloudyTabs retrieves the list of devices from iCloud. You could try to unlink old devices from iCloud to see if they disappear from the list. I think you can do this from the settings on https://www.icloud.com.

Unfortunately not. I have all of these devices already unlinked and they are not visible in iCloud. It is definitely issue of CloudyTabs.

CloudyTabs reads iCloud's internal sync data, so iCloud is still trying to sync tabs for these old/duplicate devices for one reason or another. Perhaps try turning off "Safari" in iCloud preferences for these old devices? (If you still have them)

However I really like @GaryKing's suggestion about hiding devices that haven't had any activity for a week so I'll implement that and push that in version 1.6. Thanks guys :smile:
