Syncing

Normally, syncing should work across all devices with established cloud providers. However, if you want to sync your data across devices with Obsidian Sync and possibly have thousands of icons, you need to try the following configuration (detailed discussions can be found here) for a successful syncing process:

Try setting the Iconize icon packs folder path to .obsidian/icons. Setting the icon packs path to this specific path does not sync the icon packs and you have to sync them manually. This won't clog up the synchronization process of Obsidian Sync.

You also need to enable the background checker. Your settings should look like this:

Background Checker

NOTE

The background checker is not only useful for syncing. It is also useful for when you want to download icons that are set in your vault but are not yet available in the icon packs.

Next to setting the icon packs path to .obsidian/icons, you should also enable the background checker. This will check if icons are missing and will download them in the background and extract them to the correct icon pack folder. In addition, it will also remove unused icon files from the icon packs folder (the icons will still be available).
