History
-
Version 1.4.0, 23 Jan 2024
- Release candidate
- Updated to latest Android SDK
-
Version 1.3.0, 24 June 2019
- Synchronize time at regular intervals (requires mobile data or WiFi)
- Can force a synchronization manually
- Display the time of the last sucessful synchronization
- Added a new setting to configure the "Synchronization interval"
-
Added a new setting "Sync interval after fail (minutes)":
if there is an "NTP error" (see above), the app will wait for that interval
before it retries again to contact the NTP server
- Added a new setting to allow sync on mobile data
- Added a "back" button in the settings
-
If the sync fails, a short description of the problem is displayed:
- "no network", if there is no WiFi and no carrier (mobile data)
- "mobile data disabled", if the app tries to synchronize while having mobile data but mobile data usage is disabled in the settings.
(actually this is not an error condition, but it will remind the user that there is a "Synchronize on mobile data" option in the settings)
- "NTP error", if the NTP server returns an error state instead of useful data
