Subject: [MA] calendar app
This is to the people at Code Factory.
I found that, in the latest release of MA, the calendar app still does not
synchronize correctly with Google Calendar. Items that are entered with MA,
simply never show up in Google.
And yes, I know my sync settings are ok, because everything on the phone
synchronizes normally, including the built-in Android calendar application.
I really don’t understand why this is not fixed, as CF have known about this
bug for a very long time now. Could this PLEASE be fixed in a next release of
MA?
My husband and I both use my Google Calendar, to know each other’s schedule. It
would be so nice if I could enter things in there using my Android phone,
instead of always having to use my old Nokia to do this. I really hope this
will be taken seriously.
Kind regards,
Miranda
