Hi, You don't is the short answer If you have diary upload turned on all you need to do is add a new entry whilst you have data coverage ( this means you can browse to a web site on your phone, where the app is installed) and the app will automatically upload any entries that are not already on the site. Why doesn't it do this automatically anyway ? Well the problem is, it would need to keep checking all the time if it could connect to the site in the background, this would flatten the battery quicker and unnecessarily use up your data allowance. By only doing it when you have added an entry it knows there is at least one entry to upload and so it is worthwhile connecting to the site to do this. Whilst adding the new entry it checks if any others need to be uploaded and uploads them. |

Simon hi. I have an I pod and your app works great basically a digital diary until I'm connected and then i'm online. In the past all I have needed to do was press "download entries from site" and it works. (it has never been automatic) worked fine before but now wont download at all. any suggestions? |

strangely enough it sorted itself out after numerous attempts. pressed 'download entries' and it did! |

I am running the app on a Nexus 7 and, as new to Android, still getting to grips with how to drive the thing generally ! |
