Describe the bug
Sync is very slow and when it is done syncing changes are not show. Ones you restart the (desktop) app completly you can see the new objects/blocks. Sometimes it requires more then one restart (or syncing is very, very slow).
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Create new objects, pages or blocks
Let it sync and shut down anytype
Open anytype on another PC
Wait for the sync status in the top right to turn green and say Synced
Look for the new objects, pages or blocks that where just created, they will not show
Restart the app, now look again, they should be visible
Repeat restart if needed
Expected behavior
Ones Anytype syncing status turns green and shows synced, one would expect all the changes made on other devises/PC’s to then be visible and not require a restart.
If this is working as intended, there should be a popup ones synced that says, restart to view changes (or something).
As said in another topic a bugged page could now be removed and deleted and on both my second laptop as well as my android phone that bugged page was also removed on first startup! Awesome work.
If I ever experience this again I will reply to this topic
Syncing between devices (android 0.5.0 version and windows 0.23.0) is very slow at the moment and even erases some of my stuff. For example, I wrote a text 20 blocks on PC. A few minutes later 4 blocks arrived at my android version. And another few minutes later the 4 blocks were synced with my windows version and deleted the other 16 blocks.
@Jeroen there was some hiccup with high system utilisation on our end the team is working to fix resource cpu utilisation and outgoing packets on the backup node which are affecting the sync. there has been a temporary fix and the permanent fix is incoming
A quick question about this fix. Do I need to do something on my end for this fix to work? As of today, I still haven’t got my Lego pages on my desktop hehe. While it is now synced on my phone.
I’m also running into this problem. Only now even restarting isn’t fixing the problem. I can’t sync between desktop, android and the server. It’s been 3 days since the last sync now. It’s completely unusable.
I lost all my work from the last 8 days because it didn’t sync on windows… After a fresh install I saw that all the work was gone and the last change in object history was 8 days ago. Even though I worked daily for over an hour Anytype didn’t synced my stuff for 8 days…
After a long time just doing one-off tests I decided to try out using Anytype for my actual notes. My plan was to keep it simple, and only create Note types, and seeing them via a Set.
Unfortunately I found that sync is very slow/unreliable. It seems to always work, but hard to tell when the update will happen.
Worse part of it (for me) is the lack of accurate feedback (Sync status on the top always shows Synced - green dot) and inability to force Sync (by swiping down, for example).
This post is marked as Solved. Shall we unmark, or create a new one?
