12 years ago @photoflow this is expected behavior, given our current spec. We have an extremely thin/shallow user system currently, since we have no login / signup process. The best we can do is create an automatic anonymous user the first time someone launches the app. So long as they don't delete the app, that user account is continued to be used. But, if they delete, reinstall, and launch the app "for the first time" again, a new anonymous automatic user is created. They can join events again, but it is a manual process. Until we have the time and money to develop a proper user system, this is the best we can do, and I'd recommend mitigating the problem by encouraging people to hang on to their event invites generated by the website / sent via email. Realistically, people hardly ever delete an app and reinstall it, so this is an edge case as an iOS issue anyway - not worth major initial investment.
when i just re-installed the application, i lost all of the events that i had before. some I dont have the codes for anymore. it would be nice to restore the events that I've had before.
