Background Refresh for iOS App
under review
Gagan Sikri
Currently, the iOS app doesn't utilize background refresh functionality. This means the app doesn't automatically fetch and update information from the cloud in the background. As a result, the app's data might become outdated if changes are made while the app is closed. To see the latest information, I have to manually open the app and wait for it to refresh.
I would greatly appreciate it if the app could leverage background refresh. This would allow the app to periodically sync with the cloud in the background, even when it's not actively in use. This background refresh would ensure that the app's information is always up-to-date, reflecting the latest changes made.

+1. This is ESSENTIAL. Simple use case: I add a task on my desktop, such as "urgent, pick up the cat from the vet at noon." Then I grab my phone and go out, but don't open the Morgen app. Consequently, I forget to pick up the cat at the vet because Morgen app doesn't update. :( :( :( :( NOT good functionality for a task manager app!

Android Widget miscalculate current time
Fabalorian
The Android widget only shows tasks and events that are scheduled a few hours ahead in the future.
The current and next fews tasks/event are not displayed.
This makes the widget useless.
I suspect its because I currently have a timezone difference of 5 hours. Please make sure to use the curernt phone timezone into account to choose which event/task is displayed.
EDIT:
I sometimes see the current tasks/events though, so the issues might be due to a sync issue rather than a timezone caculation issue.
EDIT2:
The issue seems to occur only when the app hasn't been open for a while. If I open the app again and let it complete the syncing, the widget shows the task/events correctly.

I believe these have all be fixed but Morgen does require a refresh for the mobile app to be updated at times.
This seems to align with the background refresh so I will merge the 2 requests instead of completing this one.

If I don't add a task to my calendar, it doesn't sync between my laptop and my phone

This sounds like a bug. Is this still an issue?

Danny Hatcher for me, the issue is at sync using the widget on iphone.
Danny Hatcher
Antonio: Is this a delayed sync or not syncing at all?

Antonio
Danny Hatcher It seems like i need to open the app to sync. Its not syncing running in the background?
Danny Hatcher
Antonio: Yes. That is how the mobile app currently syncs.
There is a background refresh request: https://morgen.canny.io/feature-requests/p/background-refresh-for-ios-app
Could I merge these requests as I feel they are the same issue?

Danny Hatcher Oh i see. My bad. It would be nice with background refresh.
PS: If you guys need help with something, let me know. I can python and im currently learning a little bit of HTML/CSS.
Danny Hatcher
Antonio Is that a yes to the merge?

Same here for iOS app, events are scheduled up 2 hours later (e.g. starting at 10:00 instead of 8:00), which would make sense for my timezone (Europe/Zurich = GMT+2).
Tried deleting app and resyncing, nothing seems to work. Desktop app shows correct time.

100% - I use the widget to check when my next meeting is and this won't update till the main app is opened. Kind of makes the widget useless.
