Top Annoyances in Lotus Traveler client
Sat, Mar 16th 2013 6:15a Paul Farris While Lotus Traveler is a great product it is not perfect. Here is my list of the most annoying things about the Android client (8.5.3).
Date Picker. Does not display day name when selecting dates.
Save button. It is at the button of the form in Cal/Todo apps. Why do I have to scroll down to the bottom of the form to press it.
Does not sync when over quota. It does not display a message explaining telling the user that they are over quota and that is why the sync is failing.
