Anytype Won't Save the Input if You Close the Page Quickly

Describe the bug

When you write something and close the page quickly afterwards, you will see whatever you wrote is gone when you reopen the page.

To Reproduce

    1. Open a page.
    1. Type whatever quickly.
    1. Right after that close the page.
    1. Reopen the page to see the error.

Expected behavior

Anytype should save whatever I write immediately, I tend to quickly close the page after writing something.

Info

  • OS: Android 7
  • Version: 0.1.2

Thank you for your notice! It has been added to the bug tracker and will be fixed in the nearest feature.

@BGray Thank you for your notice! It has been added to the bug tracker and will be fixed in the nearest future.

@BGray, what happens if you reopen the page few seconds later after what you’ve done in these video?

@Ubu After typing something and quickly closing the page, if I don’t open the page for a few seconds, text will not be there. If I reopen the page quickly and do not close it back, no text will be there again.

Though, if I keep closing and reopening it, at some point I’ll see whatever I wrote there. Also make sure to test it on a single device. If you are also viewing the page on another device, I believe it gets written.

Should be fixed in 0.1.3
