NetNewsWire connects and syncs without any problem with my freshrss instance. But when I read an article on NetNewsWire (on iOS or iPadOS) that doesn’t reflect on the FreshRSS side.
all the articles are still unread, even when I sync manually. The other direction FreshRSS → NetNewsWire works and the read status gets synced.
This works with the MacOS Version just fine.
Is there something I can do to fix that, or is that a bug?
Do you see anything in the Error Log on iOS?
Hi,
Only the errors when freshrss is not available in the early morning due to a running backup script, that temporarily shuts down the whole docker environment.

@Nkow Try this for me: read a few unread articles in NetNewsWire then put NetNewsWire into the background. After a few seconds check FreshRSS.
Sadly that didn’t help. A few seconds or a few minutes in the Background didn’t sync the Status to freshrss
correction… it worked on the iPhone. Seems something is wonky on my iPad.
Thanks, I’ll investigate further
Are there any feeds out of place in NetNewsWire (e.g., feeds not in folders)?
Hi,
no, everything is fine. Honestly, sorry that I bothered you. After a reboot of the iPad everything just works without any Problem.
No bother. FreshRSS has had some strange reports recently.
