TidyFlow is the all-in-one platform for cleaning companies. Offline iOS & Android field app, GPS-verified jobs, two-way Google Sheets sync, AI dispatch, payroll, and client proof — 11 languages.
How does the two-way Google Sheets sync handle conflicts if someone edits the same job in both places at the same time?

Google Sheets two-way sync uses a simple last-write-wins approach. It does not merge changes or compare timestamps.
Jobs are matched by Unique ID. If the same job is edited in both TidyFlow and Google Sheets, the latest synced data can overwrite the previous changes. There is no conflict warning or merge option.
A short ~1.8-second protection prevents TidyFlow’s own updates from immediately syncing back as new changes.
Curious how the two-way Google Sheets sync handles conflicts when multiple team members edit the same record at the same time? Also wondering what happens if our internet drops mid-job in the field.

The Google Sheets sync uses a last-write-wins approach, so if multiple people edit the same job at the same time, the latest synced change can overwrite the previous one.
If the internet drops while a cleaner is working in the field, the app is designed to keep working and sync the data once the connection is back.
The field app actually works offline, which is huge for crews in spotty coverage areas. The two-way Sheets sync feels like a clever move for smaller ops that live in spreadsheets.
Tried the field app on my Android and the offline mode actually works as advertised, which surprised me. The two-way Google Sheets sync is a nice touch for our small crew.
