I'm currently kitting out my new home studio before next month and my budget is around $1200. The weirdest thing is happening though. I'll add a bunch of cable organizers and soundproofing foam on the Amazon app on my iPhone while I'm on the train, but then when I log in on my laptop at home the cart is just empty or has stuff from like a week ago. I read online that it should sync automatically if I'm on the same account, but some forum posts say the mobile app handles "saved for later" differently which confuses the desktop site. I'm just lost why it's so inconsistent. Is there a trick to force a sync?

ngl the cache thing is totally the culprit here. Ive seen this happen a ton when switching from mobile data to home wifi because the session tokens just dont hand over properly. Basically found the fix for this on Smartphone Board a while back. Quick question tho, are you using a VPN on your iPhone? That usually messes with how Amazon verifies your location across different devices.

In my experience, the apps cache is usually the culprit. Ive seen this for years while kitting out my own gear. Amazon servers just dont talk to each other fast enough.
- Force close the app then reopen it.
- Log out and back in on both devices. I usually just use amazon cart share to bypass the sync issues. Honestly, its way less frustrating than waiting on their servers.
