Why does SleepyHead lose my data?

Post by vsummers » Tue Aug 12, 2014 6:44 am

I've been using SleepyHead for almost a week and type in notes every morning. This morning, though, I find that the data and notes for the past two days are missing. Why is this happening and is there a way to retrieve the data? How do I prevent the problem in the future? I'm using a ResMed Elite 9 and have been on cpap for about four months.

Notes are one section of code I try to stay the heck out of unless it's critical.. I haven't had too many problems reported with it yet, up till this. :/

SleepyHead doesn't save notes until the day is changed, or the application is closed...

If the app doesn't shut down properly it could theoretically kill a note being worked on? :/

But they shouldn't vanish.. that's just weird..
