for all of you for whom iCloud sync isn’t working out and who’d like to sync over wifi (airdrop sync being considered a feature request), I can recommend INSTASHARE.
I’m by no means affiliated with them, and there might be a free solution out there, but at least it does the job : syncing whatever document between any mac and iOS device.

Ps: I'm on 10.10.3 & iOS 8.3

1. Just use the instructions to zip your MC archive here:
http://mentalfaculty.tenderapp.com/kb/mental-case-for-mac-os-x/restoring-a-backup-of-mental-case-2-for-mac-after-failed-sync

2. drag the file upon the INSTASHARE ICON.
3. choose the destination device
4. confirm the transfer
5. on iOS INSTASHARE app, choose « open with » and choose MC
6. that’s it, now you have a working copy of your Mac MC archive on iOS

Now, obviously, it’s not an incremental sync, so every sync will erase the existing archive, but at least it works !

Let’s just hope MC developer(s) will integrate Airdrop in not too a distant future… : )

    Won't this wipe the due status of notes?
