Last and final post...
-
Ok, not my last and final post! It is interesting throughout all this, that during my search for a better app, I honestly didn’t find one that fits my needs and skill set as well as hyperPad! It is wiser for me to take the extra time to bring an older version up to speed than spend more time learning another platform!
I enjoy and I am very familiar with hyperPad and I don’t want to start over, so I’m sticking with it.
I’ll learn from the recent past, update to my own cloud, etc., deal calmly with going a few steps backward every now and then understanding that it is part of growth, and try to remain positive....either that, or up my meds! -
@jonnyflapjack
I'm glad to hear you're sticking around and willing to give us another chance. We're quite humbled to hear that you enjoyed hyperPad.Our next few updates will focus on stability and bug improvements. So I can assure you the experience will get better. I don't have any specific dates just yet, and don't want to promise anything. We're already quite behind on when I wanted it out by. But what I can promise you is we're working hard on fixing the reported problems!

How hard is it to upgrade your server hosting package to one that actually works?
Why have you not addressed the fact that users can't store and work on their projects?
-
@deeeds first, I CAN store and work on projects. So at worst it’s partly functional....
Second, he just said “But what I can promise you is we're working hard on fixing the reported problems!”. I’m guessing that includes fixing the cloud storage bug that several users are experiencing. -
@itap-development Cloud storage isn't a bug.
It's a problem with the server hosting package they've bought as part of the forum and hub "upgrades".
Storing was working up until then, in the current version of hyperPad.
They've switched to cheaper hosting/servers for the last couple of months.
@Murtaza I'll happily pay the difference for you to return to the previous hosting/servers.

So what’s wrong with iCloud backups? Certain users can’t use iCloud to back up their projects? Just tested it, works for me. My upload speed is rediculously slow, like 50kb/sec, so I always turn iCloud backups off lol cause they take so long.
-
@aidan-oxley Not icloud storage. hyperPad cloud storage.
That which is being paid for as part of the product.
That which is supposed to work when saving and quitting a project and heading back to the projects page.
THAT is not working.
It was 2 months ago. It's not now.
Does this work for you?
-
@deeeds HyperPad cloud backups work for me.
-
@aidan-oxley Yes, of course they do. It's just everyone else.
-
@deeeds who else is it happening too?
-
The issue is backups ARE working for a large number of users. This makes it very difficult to track the problem. From what we're seeing there is no common connection between the users that are experiencing back up problems.
As for servers. We're using the same servers, but changed the software and how things are handled. Basically removed the bloat to make things quicker for you, and quicker for us to update and change (and also cheaper for us in the long run).
Could this change be the root cause to the back up issue? Possibly. But again, because we're seeing constant backups being sent to the server, it only seems to be affecting a small number of users.I understand that it's a feature that you've paid for, and definitely get that you're upset. You can go through apple to get a refund (they don't give us this ability :( ), and I'll make sure your account stays with the developer tier for an extra few months.

@murtaza If it helps, I never use my cloud backups, every project I make I make sure cloud backups are disabled (and have to ignore the warning message every time). So is it possible it’s just happening to users who are using it a lot?

I don't think this is the case. Because when looking at backups, they are multiple instances from the same users. I'm thinking it could be something about the project, or their accounts are in a "weird" state.
-
@murtaza Yeah, maybe some bugged behaviors?
For example, the patrol behavior caused any object that had a relative position to disappear when I made the change from absolute to relative position.
That has nothing to do with cloud backups, but the point is that the bug can be super weird inside of the project.

You're just as capable of reading and remembering the content of the forums as everyone else.
