Automatic section change on iPhone

Dominic Mercier

In the iPhone app, when I open a task, the section automatically changes after a second or so. Every time I open a task, I need to pay attention and cancel the change if necessary. Is this a bug, or is there a way to disable this behavior?

Hi @Dominic Mercier , can you please provide more details? What change is happening?

Hello @Cornelia Patscheider_is_OOO

Tasks are associated with a section within a project. For example, for a given project, let's assume the sections are "Not started", "In Progress", and "Done". And let's suppose a task is in the "In Progress" section. On the iPhone, the name of the task section appears on a colored banner at the top of the screen. When I open the task in the iPhone app, the section automatically changes from "In Progress" to "Done" approximately one or two seconds after the task is openned. I then have to manually move the task back to the "In Progress" section. This behavior is very sneaky because if I don't notice that the section has been changed, the task now appears as "Done" when it is actually "In Progress." In my opinion, tasks should not change sections automatically.

Hi @Dominic Mercier ,

that indeed does sound like a very sneaky behavior, that does not seem intentional. If you would like Meister to look further into this, then I would recommend contacting the Meister Support team reporting this issue.
