I have. It's not easy. It requires zooming in reeeeaaaaaalllly close to get the cursor where you want it. Then the browser tends to very easily zip back out so you're left squinting at your own wisdom in Flyspeck Legal Condensed 1.2 pt...

Besides, when any given web page is fully zoomed out the links tend to be very close together. For a person with ordinary-sized fingers, like me, it's easy to select the wrong link or button by accident.

Also, it sometimes takes several tries to activate a textarea, I don't know why; is it because the touch must be long enough, short enough, just the right length, just the right area (pressure), or do I move my finger too much?

Have you tried moving the text insertion point in an Android application - that's even more useless as it doesn't work at all! Move the insertion point to the middle of the text, start deleting and text is still deleted from the end of the line.

So - anyone figured out how to synchronise music from Windows 7 media player to the Jolla? More specifically, how to synchronise to the SD card (synchronising to internal memory works fine, but there's only about 11Gb of free space there, and I've got 10Gb of music ...)

Not quite sure what the point of an invisible SD card is.

What would you suggest? I'm curious.

OMG! i had to use the official WA-client for the first time on Jolla today:
it is so ugly and bad to use and full of lacking features, i really feel bad for the people, who had to use THIS all the time...
we really need some money and a Jolla for Cepi, i was using Whatsup all the time and i love(d) it!

How do you know when the SD card is even mounted - I've got a 16GB card in mine, but "About Product" still shows 2.1/13.7 so I'm guessing from that it's not been recognised.

Edit: Never mind, have now enabled developer mode and can see the SD card mounted at /run/user/100000/media/sdcard:

Absolutely no way of telling in the UI if you have an SD card mounted, or if it's removed, or how full it is...

I can sort of agree to both sides of this. Their Zendesk system seems to be getting quite a few requests - my first and latest tickets, submitted 5 days apart, have a difference of 705, and I do believe the numbers are sequential. (No, I didn't submit 705 tickets, one or two people got in between ) The latest number (yesterday) was over four thousand, so that's more than 50 per employee.

While I understand how a public bugtracker would serve at least the more active part of the community, I can also see how there's likely to be a frantic bugfix frenzy going on, and a feeling of being overwhelmed by bug reports. Of course having these organized would help, but perhaps they don't think they can tie up anybody for the task? As a customer I do hope that they have clear priorities for the upcoming updates, and I also wish to get clear communication.

Mine read the data that was already on the SD card. I have yet to figure out how to make e.g. the camera store its pictures on the card.

could not care less what crap like android or ios do. what I want is a phone doing stuff better, harmattan did go forward being better and sailfishos to but also some regressions that hoppefully will be fixed.

That's part of what I mean by invisible.

I know that the Jolla can see the SD card because that's how I copied my N9 contacts over properly (stuck SD card into PC, copied exported VCFs onto SD card, put SD card into Jolla, and then was able to import all contacts from those VCFs - Settings/Apps/People/Import contacts/From File. And I can see it in terminal (or SCP or similar) as /run/user/100000/media/sdcard
