Home Screen'd Hive takes too long to load (iPhone 4/3G) #89

Closed ghost closed 10 years ago

ghost commented 10 years ago

On an iPhone 4 (standard) and a 3G connection in Thailand, a Home Screen iconified Hive (via m.hivewallet.com) takes about 8-10 seconds to get to the pin screen. That seems a bit excessive; any tricks or caching possible to reduce that?

Yep we'll be looking into optimisation of all the things once the feature-set has been completed. As I might have mentioned before, though - homescreen apps are notoriously buggy. So I'll look into it, but for all I know the flash of white screen before opening the app might be something native that we can't even touch - that's why a phonegap option for hive-js might be a better solution (apple's approval pending).

This is part of what I was referring to in issue #41. I don't have an answer for this specifically (it might be a simple fix, or it might be a quirk of 'add to homescreen' apps altogether), except to say that this is one of the reasons it's important to make sure it's enhanced for this purpose, before we encourage people to add it to their homescreen.

I don't view this as an issue relating to 'bugginess' of home screen web apps, nor do I think it's THAT big of a deal. We'll improve what we can, and beyond that it's just a matter of having a decent network and a fast phone.

Yeah I think the comment about homescreen from both of us isn't specifically related to this, it's just one of the many things that seem odd on homescreen. Another being that sometimes if you have multiple homescreen apps on your device, it will swap their icons randomly and open the wrong app.

Closing because it's "okay enough" now.
