use the Share link option on mobile to send to Dynalist inbox
Expected result
sync to desktop
Actual result
Shows up in mobile, but items are permanently sitting on my inbox on mobile and wonāt sync to desktop (weāre talking weeks and probably months, pretty much gave up on this function). I was able to enter some text on mobile in the Inbox that did sync to desktop.
Are you using the iOS app or the Android app? Daniel is using the Android app, so I just want to know if this is specific to the Android app or not. Thanks!
Just adding to the chorus that Iām also experiencing this. (iOS official app)
An additional data point: if I move the unsynced items out of the inbox to another list, they DO appear on the desktop wherever I sent them. Theyāre just not visible in the Inbox.
I experience this issue too. It is somewhat random how it occurs. Sometimes items added from the āshareā sheet will sync, but sometimes they will stay in the inbox on my iPhone. It would be nice if there was a way to force a sync of all items.
Aww, that sounds bad. If there are no patterns we can reproduce with, I guess weāll start the investigation by looking at how the code is different for manually input items vs inbox shared items.
Iāve just starting using dynalist, and I always saw this behavior (i.e. links shared from android never appear on the web/desktop version). Now it seems to work - I did two things that might have made a difference
I changed my inbox the top item of a page (called inbox) to an item in another page
I turned off the ālockā button on mobile (I often just view notes on mobile so leaving lock on makes sense)
hope this helps
Same problem here, on Android. It seems to occur when using the sharing function on Android, and then choosing Dynalist. The item does appear in the Inbox, but not on the web. I tried the following in the Inbox:
add a space to the shared item -> still not syncing the shared item
add a new item manually to the Inbox -> syncing the new item, but not the shared ones
move the new manually added item up the list -> now the shared items in the Inbox are synced with the web version
So one workaround is to manually add an item at the bottom of the Inbox, and then move this item up the list.
I am very disappointed that Dynalist has not been able to fix this in more than 2 months. I am a paying customer.
I am having this issue as well on iOS, typically (at least when I notice it) when I share content to my Dynalist inbox. The latest incident happened in the last couple days.
The shared item is not visible in browser, or in the Dynalist desktop (Windows) app, and both those services and the iOS app display they are Synced. If I change the contents of the bullet point, or add a note the item still wonāt show up outside of iOS.
The only workaround I have seen is if I indent the newest items so it is the child of the bullet point above it (I have items added to the bottom of my inbox).
Thatās super helpful! Youāre saying that changing the content of the broken item doesnāt do anything, but moving it somewhere else (i.e. indent/unindent, drag-drop) fixes it? This is a very interesting clue could narrow down the problem.
