  I'm having the same issue on OSX. I've installed both apps from the Apple App store--though they installed into different directories.
  
  I've tried to manually copy the BGEE 'Final Save' into the saved games folder in SoD and SoD then crashes instantly when trying to load. Is there a script that I can apply to prep my final save for import into SoD?

  Another issue: There is an enemy present in the screenshot. This means that you cannot quicksave. I always export the last save from my iPad before entering the temple, and that works fine.

  Having the same problem:
  
  - iOS, iPad 11;
  - have installed BG:EE, SoD, BG2:EE etc. (bought that all in one BG package on AppStore);
  
  - Killed Sarevok;
  - watch end scene and credits;
  - game goes straight to main menu;
  - check the load game section, the final save file is there;
  - close BG:EE;
  - open SoD, main menu "continue" button inactive;
  - tap single player -> import game, there's nothing there and no option to choose file from directory;
  
  - read up on what might be the issue including this forum, decide to try that holding the quick save button method;
  - load the final save file in BG:EE, immediately goes into the end cutscene and credits, also creates another final save file, try a couple of times, keeps creating more final save files;
  - try the pausing trick before the end cutscene starts, long press quick save button, but the game tells me either "cannot save at this time" or "there are monsters about", tried several times and it's refusing to create export save file;

  Ok, loaded the most recent auto-save, before going inside the temple did the long press quick save button, the export window opened and I chose the SoD app icon. Opened SoD, imported the "0000001..." file. Then discover that my gem bag, scroll case and potion case have been replaced by some trash items! Retried exporting from different save files in BG:EE but the stuff is still gone in SoD. Now there's a bunch of export files with same name from BG:EE in the import list of SoD that I can't delete from the list - how can I get rid of them and how do I keep my stuff into SoD?
