Hi, When Voice Dream Reader first introduced the iCloud syncing option, I had some problems. I deleted everything in my Voice Dream library and re downloaded the stuff I really wanted using iCloud sync. I have had no problems with the feature since then. It was especially nice when I switched from the iPhone 6s plus to the 7 plus. Voice Dream Reader automatically downloaded all of my books from iCloud. Unfortunately, sometimes you just have to start fresh when working with cloud syncing.
