Urban Airship - sync tags registered on UA server with SDK on device

Question

I have an Urban Airship device token with two tags registered to it. One tag was registered from the device using [[UAPush shared] addTagsToCurrentDevice:registerTags]; and [[UAPush shared] updateRegistration];. The second tag was registered to that token using their web API. I confirmed that both tags were successfully registered using the web API. However, when testing on the device, only the one tag registered locally with the SDK is returned with [[UAPush shared] tags];. Is there any way to make the SDK sync with the server to recognize the tag that was added remotely? I have tried calling updateRegistration but it still doesn't pull in the remotely added tag.

You can't syncronize tags between a mobile client and a server. Setting tags from the server will override the tags you set from the mobile device using setTags or addTagsToCurrentDevice.
