Describe the Bug

When trying to create a bookmark from the web browser on Android, the bookmark is not populated in the app unless the app is force stopped and restarted. This is true for both Firefox and Opera web browsers.

Expected Behavior

When I use the "share" feature in the web browser, a bookmark is created immediately in the floccus app.

To Reproduce

  1. Navigate to a web browser and select a tab pointing to a web page.
  2. Select "share" from the browser app menu and select floccus as the target.
  3. Check/edit the details of the dialog that appears for the floccus app and save.
  4. Open the floccus app and navigate to the folder where the newly-created bookmark was added.
  5. See that the bookmark is not present
  6. Navigate to the Android settings app and locate the app settings for the floccus app.
  7. Select "Force stop" for floccus.
  8. Select "Open" for floccus.
  9. Navigate to the folder where the newly-created bookmark was added.
  10. See the bookmark in the folder in step 4.

Hello :wave:

Thank you for taking the time to open this issue with floccus. I know it's frustrating when software causes problems. You have made the right choice to come here and open an issue to make sure your problem gets looked at and if possible solved. I'm Marcel and I created floccus and have been maintaining it ever since. I currently work for Nextcloud which leaves me with less time for side projects like this one than I used to have. I still try to answer all issues and if possible fix all bugs here, but it sometimes takes a while until I get to it. Until then, please be patient. Note also that GitHub is a place where people meet to make software better together. Nobody here is under any obligation to help you, solve your problems or deliver on any expectations or demands you may have, but if enough people come together we can collaborate to make this software better. For everyone. Thus, if you can, you could also have a look at other issues to see whether you can help other people with your knowledge and experience. If you have coding experience it would also be awesome if you could step up to dive into the code and try to fix the odd bug yourself. Everyone will be thankful for extra helping hands! One last word: If you feel, at any point, like you need to vent, this is not the place for it; you can go to the forum, to twitter or somewhere else. But this is a technical issue tracker, so please make sure to focus on the tech and keep your opinions to yourself.

I look forward to working with you on this issue Cheers :blue_heart:
