The DBs on my Mac at home are quite big. I sync via iCloud to my iPad and iPhone and download only what I need while I’m on my trips - a few GB. I’d like to do the same for my Macbook, but I cannot find a similar mechanism like on the iPhone, it seems I always have to sync and download the whole DB. Is this correct, or did I miss something here?
Thanks for your feedback.

No you can’t sync a partial database and there is no support for a shallow sync in DEVONthink on the Mac. If space is at a premium on the Mac, you can put your database(s) on a connected external hard drive.
I find this disconnect between iOS and MacOs version a little annoying - I can understand mobile have less functions and defaults that are applicable but this decision to hv different functionality seems strange if not conducive to quality code (I only read now on mobile, have data disappearing, corrupted PDFs from OCR etc)
Random idea - you should be able to run the mobile version of DT on MacMini - which will give you the space saving functionality but the iPad interface I assume.
