> 6. Locating Your Misplaced Phone
I've had an issue many times, in which my phone (possibly to save battery?) is not KDE connected when I need it; usually after not touching it for several hours...
So I recommend disabling energy saving feature for the KDE connect app. Nonetheless, it's strange, I blame Android for optimizing this functionality into uselessness (for battery's sake probably, but I really dislike this new trend of "uncofigurable" devices).
- tkanarsky 3y agoTailscale works great for this use case, in me experience. Very plug-n-play.
- lillecarl 3y agoI'd love KDE to implement a server dependent version with both a subscription and a self-hosted version. If I understand push notifications properly they could be used to keep it sleeping until it's "notification time", connect and do it's thing. Since there's always a push connection active with your phone it wouldn't increase battery consumption
- MayeulC 3y agoI agree, I'd love KDE Connect to support UnifiedPush.
