Whenever I pull gun profiles from the Kestrel into the iOS app, the profiles are being duplicated. I swear I'm choosing the prompt to overwrite...so, what's going on?

Only clue I see is that the profile name is truncated when coming from the Kestrel.

Thoughts? Known issue?

Edit: damn, that's a big picture.

The app setting for overwrite or append is for downloads only to make sure you do not exceed the memory limit of the Kestrel. There are no limits on the app so profiles are always appended. Best to delete profiles on the app before uploading from the Kestrel if they are dups. Many keep a lot of profiles on the app and download as needed to the Kestrel, if there were an overwrite option all would be deleted with any upload.

Got it. As a software designer myself I get that things can't always please everybody. That said, *this* end user was expecting the transfer to work the same in both directions with append or overwrite options.

Thank you for the clear explanation.
