WhenLast (Android app) - v2.20 Beta - Aug 20, 2018
rjbull:
If an app installed on multiple devices wants to keep sync'd between multiple devices, it has to write some real code to merge changes and keep files synchronized, etc.

You could, presumably, manually sync with Dukto over a LAN (local WiFi in my case).
mouser:
(1) When one edits an entry, one finds the dates presented in US format. I would much prefer them to be in ISO format, that being the clearest, least ambiguous, and most suited to a program that may be used internationally.
(2) It's possible to edit a date and time manually - and the field accepts any old garbage, there doesn't seem to be any error-trapping. You also allow use of the standard Android date-picker. Is there any reason not to make that mandatory, i.e., remove manual editing? If you do that, for consistency there would have to be a time-picker as well.
1: in the advanced options you can change the format of the displayed date and time to make it how you want it.
2: this is trickier.. right now the date history is basically free form multi-line text where no formatting is enforced. i choose that for simplicity. but perhaps ideally it would enforce a specific strict list format.

Thanks, I didn't know that. But, I must be missing something, because it doesn't work for me:

This is even after rebooting the device (Asus MemoPad 7, ME173X, Android 4.2.2). Perhaps an explanation of the tokens and format is in order, at least as a link to somewhere?

Were you to decide to give WhenLast statistics, it would be necessary to enforce the correct data format. Maybe it's a nice idea that's not worth the bother of doing.
mouser:
changing the options wont change past history text, only the dates shown on the live items (and possibly subsequent date history entries, not sure about that).

Dates on live items now display correctly with token string yyyy-MM-dd; I didn't think past history items would be changed. I confirm it doesn't change new entries, they are still in US format.
