Synchronization problems across multiple devices

[Sigi K]

I'm not sure if MLO is the right Taskmanaging Tool for me in the long run. I bought it back then to get a Taskmanager which is able to sync itself across multiple Platforms (PC, Smartphones etc.). Many other Taksmanagers fulfill that requirement. 

But how is it with MLO? Most of the time I'm working with my PC. There I have to start the synchronization manually. Then I need to wait a while because otherwise I get Sync-conflicts. On my smartphone I need to press the Clown-Symbol because otherwise it doesn't synchronize automatically. 

In 4 of 5 cases the Synchronization fails (I have around 8000+ Tasks) and the App crashes without finishing the Sync. That's very tedious in the long-run. 

Am I doing something wrong or is the automatic background synchronization just not working how it should?

Sigi, fyi automatic synch works great for me on both Windows and Android. Only exception: if my phone battery is low then Battery Saver kicks in and autosynch stops. When I get home, I plug the phone in, and without any further intervention from me, Battery Saver drops and autosynch runs. By the time I get to MLO on windows, it is up to date.

On the other hand, you have experienced crashes and continued. The first crash probably damaged your database, causing the subsequent crashes which make it worse. This is not okay. Crashes are not normal. People are not supposed to "learn to live with" crashes. People are not supposed to ignore the damage that crashes are doing to their database.

On the device that's crashing, go to settings>troubleshooting and enable logging.

After the next crash, go back to settings>troubleshooting and send logs and profiles to sup...@mylifeorganized.net

Include a message telling what was going on and copy in any error message.

Hope this helps

I'm wondering if you are talking about "Wi-Fi Sync" instead of the "Cloud Sync" that Dwight is talking about. Completely different things, and the wifi sync is what I use because I only want to sync at home and when I'm ready because it is not automatic, and does not send my data to a cloud server I cannot control.

Cloud sync is an extra paid service that is automatic, and the thing Dwight is saying works great. I've had a free trial and it seemed Ok.

I can't find a link direcly to it but scroll down on the main page https://www.mylifeorganized.net/  and you can click the wifi symbol and the cloud symbol to see the two... if that's not the confusion then you might also want to search for other people here who posted about sync problems on the cloud, as well as trying what Dwight suggests.

Thanks for the answers, I'm using Cloud Sync, I will get the Logs. And do as suggested
