Just to be sure,

org-mobile-push copies all flies listed in org-mobile-files to
org-mobile-directory and creates an index and checksum file.

After you have made changes, you then use org-mobile-pull and that will
pull any changes (from dropbox etc) into your original .org files. I
think this is the main function of the index.org.

No teasing required.

I saw mention earlier about the docs so I thought I should mention the
official doc is quite good, it probably explains it better than me. Its
in the appendix B:
