General stability about focus_launcher HOT 18 CLOSED

@IzzySoft currently it's active by default. I'll provide a user setting in next release

from focus_launcher.

hmm... I agree. It makes sense. I'll disable by default and provide opt-in setting. I'll be creating a separate issue for this (#413)

from focus_launcher.

After the last release the stability gets a lot better. I'm back to using Focus Launcher again. However, there are still specific thing that cause the launcher to crash, like trying to change the position of lunar phase information.

from focus_launcher.

That's great to hear. Can you explain more on the crash

trying to change the position of lunar phase information.

What do you mean by this?

What do you mean by this?

Sorry, not the widget position, but seemingly my location (Current Place). If I click on it, the launcher crashes.

from focus_launcher.

Seems fine to me. Try with v0.8.1. I've added crash reporting support.

Tried it. Launcher still crashes, if tapping Current Place.

Did you add Google Crashlytics?

from focus_launcher.

Ahh... I see the issue. It's due to device locale. I'll provide a fix.

Did you add Google Crashlytics?

Something similar. I've added Sentry

from focus_launcher.

Fixed in v0.8.2

from focus_launcher.

Looks good. However, the launcher still crashes from time to time.

@mslalith seeing you've added Sentry, and before I add the Tracking anti-feature: Is Sentry configured opt-in, or is it active by default?

from focus_launcher.

Thanks! So shall I put up Tracking for now and you let me know once it's opt-in so I remove it again – or is that "next release" imminent (i.e. expected to ship within a few days)? I'd receive daily alerts with the AF missing and the "tracker" not "whitelisted".

from focus_launcher.

Tracking will show up now with the next sync. Please let me know when a version with opt-in is available.

from focus_launcher.

@IzzySoft There's a new Privacy setting in v0.9.0 to opt-out of crash reporting.

from focus_launcher.

Better, but that's the wrong way around: it should be opt-in. Remember, you should not do that without informed expressive consent. If you have it enabled by default, you have no consent at all – neither informed, nor expressive. So I have to keep the Tracking anti-feature in place for now:

Tracking: the application tracks and reports your activity to somewhere – usually either without your consent, or by default (i.e. you’d have to actively disable it)

from focus_launcher.

@kenderipa Fixing crashes which are unexpected is an ongoing process. As your issue is resolved, I'll close this ticket.

from focus_launcher.

Once again, the launcher has become almost unusable.

from focus_launcher.

@mslalith, you should have a lot of crash reports from my tablet.
