iPhone app problems
Dear Reqall,
I have to say I'm very dissappointed that I have to send you this message. When I first signed up with reqall, I was very happy with all aspects of the service. I'm really at a loss to understand why you released the 3.0 iphone app when the previous version worked perfectly fine. The new app, at least in my experience, is fraught with problems:
1) The app takes too long to open. This is in contrast to the old app, which had no delay whatsoever when one opened it. 15 seconds of the reqall startup screen followed by another 5-15 seconds of waiting for the "plus" button to actually respond is unacceptable. I'm often trying to drive and can't afford to wait 30 seconds everytime I want to create a reminder. In addition, there are random times when the "tap to start" screen is unresponsive.
2) The app crashes more often than not. Once it's running, I can add around three notes before it either becomes unresponsive or quits on its own and reverts to the iphone main screen. Then, I get to wait for it to start up again.
3) Many of my recordings are cut off prematurely. This is what catalyzed this message to you. I can't have events show up on my google calander that say "meeting tomorrow at..."
4) Syncing takes forever and resends the same note several times. Furthermore, the app does not accurately report whether I am actually synced or not. (In other words, sometimes it says I am not synced when I am, and other times, it will display that it is synced and notes I know I recorded aren't showing up aywhere else)
I love the concept of reqall, and having shopped around, decided it is at the forefront and that's why I pay for a pro account.
I essentially only use reqall for two things. To email myself reminders and to create google calendar events. Please help me with a solution to the above problems.
And please don't send me the "we're having problems due to an unexpected turnout of users signing up" excuse.
Thank you.

Inappropriate?I'm sorry that you are disappointed with your reQall app. Can you tell me how you are adding your voice recordings to reQall? Are you using the Add By Voice feature, eyes free recording, or by calling into reQall? We are continuing to work on the response time when opening the reQall app. What happens is when the app is opened the iPhone automatically performs a sync not only for reQall but for other apps you may have.

Hi Jessi, thanks for the reply and please forgive my late reply to you. I'm using the "plus" button on my iphone app and then tapping the screen to add. I actually don't know what "eyes free" is. -
Inappropriate?gtdlist78:
I am running reQall version 3.1.1 on an iPhone 3Gs. On my phone, it takes about two seconds from the time I start the app to when I see the home screen. Syncing takes about 5 seconds over WiFi. Do all of your apps run slow or just reQall?
Regarding point #3, are you in your car using eyes-free when the recordings are cut off, because I have experienced this too. I think the app might be too sensitive to gyro movement. Going over bumps seems to sometimes end the recording. I will ask reQall support about this in a separate thread. Try adding items by using the + button. If it works that way, you will know the eye-free feature is the culprit.
Like you, I currently use reQall exclusively for reminders and calendar events. I hope to get into the places feature soon. -
Hi ozzie, no just reqall runs slow for me. I use the plus button exclusively. -
Inappropriate?@ Gtdlist78, have you updated your reQall app to reQall 3.1.1?
-
Yes. BTW is there a way to go back to version 2? Thanks. -
Inappropriate?No, I'm sorry there is no way to go back to the older versions. Let me look into this for you and I will get back with you. I may need some additional information.
