iPhone app 1.5.1: Instant sync and bug fixes

Are you having any similar issues? Edit: I would also LOVE to see the "Couldn't connect to Toodledo.com Do you have an internet connection?" notification have an option to be disabled. Having to tap it every single time I turn my iPod Touch back on is extremely aggravating. This message was edited Jul 16, 2009.
Anders	Posted: Jul 16, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Anders Posted: Jul 16, 2009 Score: 0 Reference I can't really compare things like the drawing issue you describe because I have a beta version of the app, and beta can be a little quirky. I have seen other requests for reminders at Due Time, and it seems like a good idea, though I'm not sure I would use it personally. I have expressed my feelings about the notes several times, and basically I agree with you. I also Agree completely about the way nested subtasks are currently implemented. As I have said before, that is my greatest wish for the app. As for the startup message, you can stop it by turning off sync on startup.

The last version did too I believe. I have an iPod as well, and though I was not happy that Apple wanted us to pay for 3.0, it is totally worth the 10 bucks for copy&paste alone. Maybe this has been said in another thread, but iPhone OS updates are "free" because they have essentially been prepaid as part of the 2 year contract. These are essentially $700 devices being subsidized by the $1000+/year iPhone users spend on their service. I will not be surprised if the iPhone 2G owners have to pay for an OS 4.0 upgrade when the time comes, as the devices will be older than the 2 years Apple accounted for.

I spent way too long to figure that out to make Push work, and it's not on the above help page!
Yannick	Posted: Jul 17, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Yannick Posted: Jul 17, 2009 Score: 0 Reference I'm running 1.5.1 and for the most part am liking what I'm seeing, the removal of the picker controls is wonderful as is the new add task method. Unfortunately I do have some issues: - I'm experiencing quite a lot of crashes, besides the known add task crash. One scenario that occurs on a daily basis is a crash after launching the app. I have to restart the app 2 to 5 times to get through. Sync on startup is disabled by the way. Several other crashes have happened, but I can't recall what I did to trigger it. - Besides the crashes, I'm having some UI glitches. Ranging from cells not being drawn to the gray bubbles being switched. (all tasks gets the bubble of the hot list and vice versa) I have several screenshots illustrating the issues and am willing to mail them if needed. - Scrolling speed is indeed slow at times, although this is not a "new" issue. Some optimization could be done, for instance drawing the contents of the cell yourself instead of using subviews. (if this is the case) That'll be it for now, don't get me wrong though, I absolutely love Toodledo, but thought I'd share my concerns. Yannick

How do I get a refund for my account since it no longer can be used on my Ipod?

Anders	Posted: Jul 17, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Anders Posted: Jul 17, 2009 Score: 0 Reference All I know is that Apple is in charge of AppStore sales, including any kind of refunds. Since they should have, but did not, warn about the incompatibility, you should have a case though I have heard they rearely offer refunds.
Jake Toodledo Founder	Posted: Jul 17, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Jake (Founder) Posted: Jul 17, 2009 Score: 0 Reference You will have to contact Apple for a refund since there is nothing that we can do about how Apple runs the store. They should have prevented you from upgrading if your iPod wasn't compatible. But before you do that, you should also ask yourself if you are going to stay with OS 2.0 forever, or whether you will eventually spring for the $10 upgrade. Because if you are going to eventually get the upgrade, why not just get it now and enjoy the new technology? There are going to be a lot of cool apps that take advantage of the 3.0 technology and eventually no new apps will be release with 2.0 backwards compatibility, and I wouldn't want you to miss out on that for just $10.

I've synced but the app is just not appearing on the dang 'dog and bone'! I tried to see if i could trick it appearing. Switching on and off. Any one else had this problem?
Anders	Posted: Sep 26, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Anders Posted: Sep 26, 2009 Score: 0 Reference I have not heard of anything like that happening. You could try downloading it directly from the AppStore on your phone, but you should probably contact iTunes support to figure out why that is happening.
Jake Toodledo Founder	Posted: Sep 28, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Jake (Founder) Posted: Sep 28, 2009 Score: 0 Reference When you plug your iPhone into iTunes, go to the "Applications" tab of the iPhone section and make sure there is a checkmark next to Toodledo. You can also just re-download it from iTunes on your iPhone like Anders recommends.

This is already in there. After you tap "New Task" and enter the task's title, you get three options: Cancel, Add Task, or Edit Details. If you just tap "Add Task" the task will be created instantly with whatever defaults you have set in the app. also, how does getting a pro subscription change the iphone app? i am looking to get one. -Subtasks -Choose reminder lead times from 15 minutes up to 30 days prior to Due Date/Time -Keep and view your completed tasks for a much longer time I think that covers it for the iPhone app. There are also Pro benefits on the website that you can use like the statistics and goal tracking. They are only on the website, not part of the iPhone app, but they will reflect your activity both on the website and in the app. This message was edited Oct 08, 2009.
Stephen Silk	Posted: Oct 18, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Stephen Silk Posted: Oct 18, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Edit: Ignore this - I worked it out 5 minutes after I posted :-) Is it likely that Contexts are going to be included in the iPhone app any time soon? Or are they implemented and I can't work it out. Context is listed under "Unused Fields" and I'm unsure if that means 'unused by the app' or 'unused by the user'. Thanks!
