Not working with multitasking (i.e. in the background)

14 years ago • updated 14 years ago • 1

The multitasking works very poorly! I started "Photo Transfer App" and then put it in the background while starting my Remote Desktop app on my iPhone. Then I remote controlled my computer to navigate to the IP address (normally 192.168.x.y:8080). Nothing. Because when switching back to "Photo Transfer App" it restarted!

And also, while the zip file is being prepared you can't do anything in the mean time! This is a telephone. What if the phone rings while Photo Transfer is working? Then I have to start all over again?!

I mean, really, get that multitasking to work properly or I have no use of this app and cannot give it a good rate in app store.

Hello,

Thanks for posting your question here. I'm sorry you are having problems with the app.

For now we decided not to support background transfers because we were having some problems when we tested long transfers. Sometimes with transfers of over 20 files the transfers would not always complete. We are still looking at this issue to try to figure out a solution to make the transfers 100% reliable in background mode (we do not want to release a feature that does not always work). Hopefully we will have an update soon with background transfers enabled. Thanks for your patience. I will post something here when the update is ready.

Let us know if you have any other comment or suggestion.

Kind regards,

Enrique
