Feature Request: Reactivate Beacon after it has expired on leader's demand. #126

Closed Aadeesh11 closed 2 years ago

Aadeesh11 commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Once a beacon has ended there is no way to reactivate, which sometimes can be a bad UX.

Describe the solution you'd like Would like to allow leader to reactivate an active beacon.

Are you working on this? (Yes/No) Yes

Doesn't the app ask for a confirmation to deactivate a beacon? If a leader deactivates it, reactivating it again wouldn't seem like a genuine option afaik, and maybe bringing in this option would increase complexity. The beacon itself remains active until the leader wishes to terminate it.

Yes leader can change his mind , no?😅 Also the beacon can expire automatically (past it expiry time). Giving users option to reactivate a beacon saves a lot of time for the group, no sharing short code again , no multiple beacon on home screen.

Wouldn't that make users to keep on reactivating the same beacon again and again? XD Also, for the respective feature you will have to edit it's details, a feature which is being taken care of in issue #107. Creating another issue with the same required changes wouldn't be necessary imo.

Yes they can keep reactivating it again and again, and save the hassle of creating a new one everytime. Closing this issue, since #107 handles it. Thank you for pointing this out :)
