List Updates Keep Getting Reverted
naikian says:
So I added some new lists and reordered/moved tasks accordingly. However, whenever I come back to my Desktop every now and then ALL of my tasks revert back to how they were sorted before the change. I keep applying the same organization again and again yet it keeps reverting. It doesn't wipe any tasks, just puts them back in the original list they were in. This is super annoying.
I thought at first it was a Sync issue between iOS and Windows Web version, so I uninstalled the iOS version but NOPE I keep getting this issue. This is a deal breaker if I can't fix it. I hope I can get some type of refund if I can't get basic sync functionality that was promised.

Same thing is happening to me. Just set up RTM with 135 tasks. 85 of them keep reverting back to inbox

From what I can see the problem is specific to moving tasks between lists on the web app. I noticed it on Saturday morning (Aug 3th) while sorting through my inbox.
If you move a task from one list to another using the web app and then refresh the page it's like the change didn't happen. All other updates seem to stick (tagging, renaming, updating of dates etc.). Moving tasks between lists using the mobile app seems unaffected so I'd suggest doing that until the problem is rectified.
I'd also suggest contacting RTM via their support email address and Twitter to raise awareness of the issue.

I have the same problem. If I move an entry to a list in the WebApp, I don't see it in the Android app. Afterwards it is also out again in the web app.

Hi andrewski,
Thanks for the speedy reply. The problem I described earlier is still apparent. Try this:
* Using the web app, add a task to your inbox
* Move that task to another list
* Refresh the page - it's back in your inbox
Now open the mobile app (I've tested on Android):
* Find the task in your inbox
* Move it to another list
* Watch in the web app as the task is relocated correctly
I feel like it's something to do with the web app specifically as I can reproduce the same behaviour using the web app on my phone.
All advice very gratefully received. :)

I'm having the same problem, all in the web app. Drag and drop is not staying dropped. I suppose it could be related to the android app: I added a task last night, and it was successfully synced to the web app.

No it's purely the web app. Everything works on iOS now that they fixed mobile app issue.

Also having issues with this. Each morning for the past 3 or 4 days I have found tasks that I moved from Inbox to a list are back in inbox. I am moving them back each day and each morning they are back in Inbox.

As of today this looks to be fixed (for me at least). I can now move tasks from list to list as normal.
Many thanks for whatever went on behind the scenes to rectify the problem. :)
