New Articles notification shown even when update fails... #145

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Update a channel that has some existing new articles.
2. Kill the connection mid-update to simulate poor data reception (cellular 
reality)
3. Switch to another app.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
RESULT: reader notifies me of new articles, despite update failing.
DESIRED: reader doesn't notify me of "existing" new articles if update fails. 
Perhaps instead it 
could include failure info with an option to retry; similar to the existing 
Retry functionality, but 
instead as a notification.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Latest.

Please provide any additional information below.
The app is likely doing what it is told here, just makes for a slightly wonky 
user experience. User: 
"Oh there are new articles, great!" Then on realizing the truth: "Oh, it's the 
same old articles that 
I chose not to read... bleh!"
