astrid shows outdated list

[ursa]

Sometimes upon opening Astrid it shows an outdated list. Ie. Tasks that I entered last night do not show up this morning. I've found if a deadline occurs or I enter a new task this can fix the problem. But it would be nice if this didn't occur or at least if there was a refresh button in the menu.
Using latest version.
Problem seems to occur randomly. Do not know how to reproduce.

A quick fix would be to go to the tags list and then hit the back
button. This bug will not be present in Astrid 3.x. Sorry for this!

Same here...recurring tasks hidden until I plan to accomplish them are not shown when they are supposed to appear, They remain hidden until I edit any task, then they all show up. The widget follows the same pattern. I'd really like it to auto-refresh the list every half hour (or a user-specified frequency or at least provide a 'refresh' button). Thanks for the app, by far the best on the Android market.

I will look into making the widget refresh periodically in the next
release of Astrid. As for the outdated task list, that required an
architectural change that has been incorporated into Astrid 3.x, which
is the next major release of Astrid. Thanks for the report.
