Thank you for the many major improvements and fixes in the most recent version from today. I especially appreciate the new 2-column view on Android tablets (looks very nice!), the display of task totals for the various views, as well as the fix with the correct alarm time now being displayed (summer time 1-hour offset is no longer getting in the way).
However, I can still see a major issue with Toodledo on my LG G2 mobile phone: there is still no way to set a task's alarm time there. On the wider screen of my Nexus 7, I get the opportunity to set or adjust the alarm time for any task, but not so on LG G2. Both devices are running the latest Android KitKat 4.4.2. On LG G2, all I can see is the alarm time already set for a task elsewhere (on the website, in an iOS app, or on Nexus 7), but whenever I edit a task on LG G2, all I get to see is the date picker. The alarm time picker, which on the Nexus 7 displays to the right side of the date picker, is completely missing on LG G2, both in portrait and landscape orientation, so that on LG G2, I can neither set nor adjust an already existing alarm time. Please, fix this. Thank you. |

Thanks for the replies. Nope, I hadn't tried to do anything with my browser, because due to the pop-up window being generated by Toodledo.com, I assumed that the issue must have been server-side rather than browser-side.
In any case, my default browser on Windows and Mac is Opera, and saving searches works fine in it right now. I honestly no longer remember where it was (what browser, what computer or handheld device) that I attempted to save those searches 4 days ago. I did make several attempts with various search keywords, and the same pop-up message was generated by Toodledo.com every time. If the issue resurfaces later on, I'll let you know here, with specifics as to the browser/platform used. |

Hi,
It is currently impossible to save any new search. Tried this several times with various searches via the main website, but no luck. The pop-up window "There was an error message saving your search. Please try again later." appears every time. Please fix this ASAP. Thank you. This message was edited Apr 21, 2014. |

Thanks for doing this. I actually used the mobile web version quite a bit. Generally, I don't see why everybody is so crazy about apps, when a simple HTML5-Website will do. Only if it works... Toodledo's mobile site did not work half the time for me on Nexus 7 over the recent weeks, claiming that I was offline when I was not (see another thread). Anyway, this is great news. MyToodle, now Toodledo, looks pretty fine as it is right now. However, I'd welcome at least the following 2 improvements: * Please, show task totals for all folders/views like the website (or Toodledo for iOS) does. * Please, integrate tasks and notes into a single app (as in Toodledo for iOS). In a way, it can sometimes be advantageous to have tasks and notes as two separate apps, but overall, I'd say integration has more advantages than the other solution. Thank you to Phuah Yee Keat and everyone else who made this happen. |

@AA: the app i was referring to is the "toodledo" app. Erm... what? At the time you were posting, no Toodledo app on Android existed. This thread is (or was) about Toodledo for Android and/or about the mobile site. Were you talking about the Toodledo app for iOS? If so, this wasn't the correct thread for it... And the Toodledo site (mobile or otherwise) is not an "app". (Jobsean jargon...) Anyway... this is moot now. Congratulations to Phuah (ykphuah) on his efforts having been accepted by Toodledo! Hope this was not just emotionally but also financially rewarding for you. Well deserved! Congratulations to SES21 as well, on the success of his rather forceful plea on the previous page of this thread. :-D I thought it was a very long shot for this to happen, but by golly, it did, and that's great. MyToodle (or Toodledo now) looks great without the intrusive ads now. ykphuah, what's your email address? There's that $10 I promised to send you via PayPal... You could buy a few bowls of phở gà for it, or whatever. (Well, you might hate it as too commonplace, but it certainly tastes delicious and exotic for us here in Europe.) I have a few suggestions on what should be improved in the new Toodledo for Android app, former MyToodle... but I'll be posting them to the new "Toodledo app for Android" thread now.

@slateboy: what "app" are you referring to?
@ykphuah: Thank you, I have now found the notes. The Play Store description for MyToodle says: "Version 5.0.5: Removes Ads" This made me very hopeful, because the ads really are intrusive. However, I can find no setting in MyToodle to disable ads -- they are still prominently displayed at the bottom of the screen. Can you, please, help me with removing ads? As promised, I'll be happy to send you the promised $5 (or, hell, even $10) right away, via PayPal or any other means, if I can just get rid of the ads. As a Gold Subscription Toodledo user, I'm just not used to associating Toodledo with ads. :) |

There's a separate application called MyToodle Notes. It's not showing up in my App Store here in Central Europe. There is only MyToodle by you. I wish Google would open their store in your country as well, because the ads seriously blow and spoil the look of the app. I'd happily pay $5, or even more, for MyToodle if it integrated notes, too, and truly offered all the functionality of the website (or the iOS Toodledo app). PS: I'm a big fan of phở gà. :-D |

Well, MyToodle is a nice effort, I guess, but it's not for me, so I uninstalled it again. (The ads are very ugly, though, even if I understand their presence is not the developer's fault.)
MyToodle does not seem to be supporting Toodledo Notes section at all, which to me, makes it unusable. I might recommend the Business Tasks plugin for the superb Business Calendar app, but again, it only supports Toodledo tasks, not the Notes section, so no full-fledged replacement for me. Toodledo's mobile site is pretty fine when it works, except that it often does not work for me... This message was edited Jan 18, 2014. |

I'll be checking out MyToodle; thanks for the hint, guys.
I must confirm what cj says. Toodledo's mobile site stopped working for me again, just like it did over Christmas/New Year. It says I'm offline although I definitely am online (regular Toodledo site loading fine on another tab). The mobile site isn't really even an acceptable workaround, if it doesn't work half the time you wish to use it. Android is reaching towards 80% of market share in many important areas around the world. I don't think it's an acceptable business model to fail to offer an Android app for much longer. iOS 7 is a disaster, and I see people abandoning Apple's overpriced universe in droves in favor of Android. (As to missing Android apps, besides Toodledo, I'm also acutely missing the Marvin e-reader and the Mailbox mail client there; there are no equal-quality replacements for them on Android, I'm afraid.) |

Greg, in the meantime, there is also the Business Tasks plugin for the superb Business Calendar app, which works fairly well with Toodledo's task data. Of course, it's no true replacement for a native Toodledo app.
I must say, though, that Toodledo's mobile site (as long as it works) is really clever, and in terms of convenience of use, comes pretty close to a native app. I'm missing saved searches on the mobile site. Over Christmas, I was thinking of ditching the iPhone for an Android phone, but I guess I'm gonna give Apple another chance to produce a 5+inch phone by September 2014 or so. I'm happy to say, though, that Toodledo's mobile site -- along with that Business Tasks plugin, perhaps -- is sufficiently smart to allow me to switch to Android, if necessary. (The situation is much worse for some other iOS apps -- like Mailbox or Marvin -- for which I'm unable to find equivalent-quality apps on Android, for the time being.)

Thanks, Jake. First of all, enjoy your Sunday, though. :)
The issue is browser-unrelated and device-unrelated: the same thing happens in the Opera browser on Nexus 7, too, as well as in any browser on my iPad. (Though I normally use the app there.) The error message Offline: Task edit queued until we are online. appears, even though I'm obviously online (and on regular Toodledo.com) on the very next browser tab. |

The mobile site stopped working for me in Chrome on Nexus 7. Very annoying. It says I'm offline, although I'm obviously not offline, because all other websites work as usual in Chrome at the same time, including Toodledo's regular site.
So what should we do in situations like these? I have emptied and rebuilt the cache several times, but still the same issue returns every time, so I can't edit my tasks at all on the mobile site. |

Score: 0
Many thanks, Jake. It does appear to be fixed, at least based on my most recent notifcations -- they were all delivered correctly to all 3 iDevices.
The symptoms on my devices were different, though. For one thing, I have my badges set up to show the number of today's + overdue tasks so that, by definition, when a notification arrives notifying me about today's event (almost all of my notifications do that), the badge could not have been set to zero nor was it supposed to be updated to zero. I don't use remote badge updates. I never experimented with badge settings while troubleshooting the notifications issue, as it never occurred to me there could be a connection. Further, there was that weird bug of when the iPad was in active use, the alert would only appear for a split second (not even long enough to read the alert), and auto-dismiss. This appears to be fixed now as well: the alert stays visible now, waiting for user input. Thank you again! |

Thank you, Jake. I realize that Apple most likely screwed up here. iOS 7 has been a nightmare for me in all kinds of other respects, too. I'll never again upgrade to another major iOS version, unless upgrading will be 100% unavoidable. As soon as my mission-critical apps (including Toodledo) are available on Android, I'm likely to make the switch, because I'm totally fed up with iOS at this point.
Local notifications aren't quite practicable for me, and as you say, they might not get displayed properly, either. I may give it a try, but... they would be very frustrating to use. I typically set up my Toodledo alarms on a desktop or notebook computer, or on an iPad, for that matter. (I use Toodledo on 3 iDevices.) Now, should I forget to sync the Toodledo app manually on all other iDevices every time after setting up/editing an alert on another device or computer, I would (as happens now) not get notified about the alarm at all. In effect, local alarms might turn out to be just as unreliable as the non-delivered server-side alerts are now. :( If you find out a way to resolve this, please let me know. All kinds of unimportant and trivial notifications seem to be working fine for me on iOS 7... but the one alert type I had been relying on most on an everyday basis for the last few years -- Toodledo notifications -- iOS 7 pretty much destroyed them.

Hello,
The crisis continues, in "reversed mode". I received my most recent work-related Toodledo notification only on the iPad. On the iPhone in sleep mode, the screen only lit up for a few seconds, without displaying anything. The notification was nowhere to be found (neither under "All", nor under "Missed"). This makes Toodledo's notifications practically worthless. If I'm in the street and the iPhone doesn't alert me to a notification, it doesn't help that the same notification pops up on the iPad somewhere in the office or at home. I need to be receiving the notifications *both* on the iPad and iPhone. Under iOS 6, iOS 5, iOS 4, iOS 3, this was never an issue. My iPad 1 running iOS 5 still displays all notifications just as it should. I wish I could downgrade to iOS 6 on both iPad and iPhone to bring this nightmare to an end. But that's not possible, I gather, not even via jailbreak. Any assistance from you will be appreciated. It is very difficult to accept that I have a Toodledo Gold subscription, but have basically lost the notifications functionality. If I cannot rely on notifications to be received, I might as well not even bother to set them up. Thank you. This message was edited Nov 03, 2013. |

Without having touched any setting since my previous post, out of the next batch of test notifications, *some* arrived on the problematic iPad, but some were skipped as before. The process seems completely random and unpredictable = unreliable. Any assistance from you will be appreciated. (This issue is no longer as urgent now that at least the *phone* seems to be receiving all notifications, but I also rely on my iPad notifications.) Thank you.

Notifications have now started arriving on my iPhone (I have no idea why), but they are still not arriving on my iPad 3. I have taken every precaution imaginable, but nothing helps. I found the following thread in Apple user forums:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/23012166#23012166 I tried everything suggested there, including factory-resetting the iPad 3 and restoring it from an iCloud backup, but everything remains as before: * If a Toodledo notification arrives while the iPad is in use, it only appears for a split second and instantly disappears. It is *not* stored among notifications. * If a Toodledo notification arrives while the iPad is in sleep mode, the iPad's lock-screen lights up for a few seconds, but remains empty. Neither the notification appears on the lock-screen, nor is it stored among notifications for later reference. I have correctly set all permissions for Toodledo notifications to appear as alerts and to remain stored on the lock-screen (up until 20 recent items), but nothing is ever stored there. My notifications arrive from the server to all 3 iDevices simultaneously. Thank you for your help, if possible. Not receiving notifications from PIM software is a dealbreaker. It appears that some other apps on the iPad might also have the same issue; not all apps, though, because notifications from a number of apps do appear on that iPad. |

Please help me with this urgent issue. Since upgrading to iOS 7.0.3 on both my iPad and iPhone, and running the latest Toodledo app version, Toodledo notifications no longer work for me. Notifications from other apps work fine. I have set them up as alerts, that is: to be dismissed manually from center of the screen.
What happens if the iPad/iPhone is in active use, is that the notification pop-up window appears for a split second and instantly disappears. I don't even have the time to register what the window says. The window should remain visible until I push a button to open Toodledo (view the task), or to dismiss the pop-up window. Then, when I pull down the iOS notifications pane, there is nothing from Toodledo there. I have no way to find out what that notification was about! Even worse: when the iPad/iPhone is *not* in use, I will *never* get to see the notification. It may appear for a split second while the iDevice is in sleep mode, lighting up the screen temporarily, but it instantly auto-dismisses. I will *not* find the notification later on when consulting the iOS notifications screen. Toodledo notifications are *nowhere* to be found: neither in the "All" section, nor in the "Missed" section. This despite them being enabled in iOS notifications settings. I also possess an old iPad 1 running (of course) iOS 5, where Toodledo notifications continue working properly. Please help. Thank you. |

I apologise if this has been mentioned previously. It appears that the mobile site does not support reading the user's time zone correctly. It's 2 hours after midnight here, yet the mobile site still shows me yesterday's tasks as "Today" (they should be "Overdue"). And it shows me today's tasks as "Tomorrow", etc. When I visit the regular site, or the iOS apps, everything is correct there.
And yes, I've also just purchased the new Nexus 7 tablet, and I'd appreciate if a native Toodledo app for Android were available. |
