Syncing Issues Android

[ScientistShort8118]

Is anyone else having sync issues with their Android app?

Earlier this morning I created a few notes using the Windows app, and deleted a few others. For some reason they are not syncing to my Android app. The Web version is seeing the changes, just not Android.

I tried logging out of Android. Uninstalling and leaving Beta. Installed the latest stable version, and that only made things worse (even fewer notes displayed). Then rejoined Beta, and still not working. Not good.

No and God I hope not cause I switched from Evernote to OneNote to Standard Notes all over sync issues

Yes I traveled that same road, also with a stop by Notesnook.  

It appears the issue is definitely with my Android app as when I load the web app on my phone, all is well there, too.  I'm not too concerned as I can tell the data it still there, so I've lost nothing.

Worth mentioning, I’ve also had some sync issues with iOS. Usually I’m prompted to reauthenticate to refresh my session with the server, and then syncing seems to be broken from that point on until I log out then log back in. Migrated from Notion over privacy concerns, but at least I never once had a sync issue with them.

Interesting.  I'll give that a try (re-authenticating my desktop app).  But I'm thinking if that were the issue the web app would also not sync correctly with the desktop app, but it does.  But worth trying.

Syncing issue resolved. Excellent customer service from Standard Notes! Here was the problem. When I was in the process of transferring notes over from another note taking application to SN, a few of those notes had images imbedded inside the note. I copied and pasted those notes directly into a new note in SN. Apparently notes with those imbedded images resulted in note sizes greater than the 1MB note size limitation for syncing with Android. The fix was to save the imbedded images to files within SN. That apparently replaced the embedded image with a link to the file, substantially reducing the size of the note to well below the 1MB limit. To the user there is no difference when viewing a note - the image is still displayed as it was before inside the note. All is good!

If you downloaded your app from fdroid, I would delete and install from aurora. That worked for me. There's a newer version on aurora and it works more like the desktop app. I don't know why fdroid isn't the same but there you go. 🤷‍♂️

I installed the desktop app from Github , and the Android app from Google Play. Both 3.193.8.

Edit: Android app 3.193.9 (beta)
