Known Shortages
QR text limit is set to 2048 Some minor updates will be done only on a new visit of the activity A group representative can only be deleted if it has no members. If there is a circle in group relationship a new memo can be set as a new representative to break the circle No zoom bar No direct edit of a memo: instead the header can be edited and copied to the memo text, due to missing edit functionality of the vCard format, XML format would be preferred but is not available as a standard, even better would be an extensible standard of data types for data fields at all Pictures are loaded on scrolling, for the first view there might be some milliseconds gap on some devices, only black/white pictures are stored due to faster loading and lower memory consumption for memos No preferences at the moment
