iCloud appears to be the only officially supported sync option for iOS besides Obsidian Sync. I’m aware that file duplication and corruption when syncing between Windows and iOS via iCloud is a known issue, and I’ve been experiencing it as well. I’ve read many forum discussions about this problem, but I haven’t found a clear or reliable solution. I’m curious how people in a similar situation have worked around it, and what best practices you would recommend.

Here’s a pinned post on Discord via epiphanicsynchronicity:
These are the five methods currently believed to work for syncing between devices if you’ll be including an iPhone and/or iPad:
• iCloud (NOTE: iCloud with Windows is known to cause file duplication issues as well as data corruption and loss, and the Obsidian devs and community strongly recommend that you avoid this combination.)
• Official Obsidian Sync
• Self-hosted LiveSync plugin
• Remotely Save or Remotely Secure plugin and various cloud services, including Amazon S3 or S3-compatible, Dropbox, OneDrive for personal, and Webdav
• Git with the Working Copy or a-Shell iOS app
