slideshow can become off sync with mobile/(possibly pebble) if mobile app is reopened. #14

Open val-litvak opened 10 years ago

slideshow can become off sync with mobile/(possibly pebble) if mobile app is reopened. i think we need to somehow make sure that the phone and the slideshow are always in sync. it seems like the phone blindly increments the page number and tells the slideshow to do the same.

example:

sunny day scenario: web slideshow on slide 1 mobile app is open for the first time user can navigate just fine

rainy day scenario: web slideshow on slide 2 (previously offset by the phone app) mobile app is reopened for whatever reason, it opens on slide 1 user presses the button to go next, on the phone it changes to slide 2, on the web slideshow it changes to 3 (because phone told it to incrememnt)

to fix this issue, the user would have to potentially restart both the web app and the phone app to get it in sync again. I think this is potentially inconvenient. what do you guys think?

rainy day scenario 2 -> same as 1 but web page is refreshed, and the phone app stays on the whatever slide it is on, so it is now offsync (unless it was already on slide 1)
