Hello list,

I've bought an Adroid phone and (of course) installed and set up
MobileOrg.  Two things make me wonder whether I've found a bug or not.

1. I tried to use encryption (by means of (setq
org-mobile-use-encryption t)), but it didn't work.

2. When I choose the menu and then "Outline", I can see the outline.
But when I choose menu and then "Agenda", I see nothing but the title
("Agenda") and a "plus" button in the upper right corner.

(a) Shouldn't there be an agenda on the screen?

(b) What does the "+" button here do?

Regards,

--

Hi mark

I totally agree with everything you said. to me its also very difficult to
understand as a neewb.

A simple org editor/viewer to just view my org files in dropbox and simply
text edit them would be fantastic, would really love something like that

Best

I think entries of the form
%%(org-class 2013 1 7 2013 4 27 2) 12:00pm-01:15pm TITLE
show up on MobileOrg.

I have org-mobile-agendas set up to 'default and they do for me.

Also the synchronization with Google Calendar is quite good in Android, you
can let then Google Calendar handles the remainders in your phone.
