Wish: synchronizing only at certain times / only on certain days

Hello,

I’d love to have options like
- synch only between X o’clock and Y o’clock
- synch only on ( ) Monday ( ) Tuesday ( ) Wednesday… etc
The reason for this request is servers that are not available at certain times, eg office machines that are switched off at night and at the week end. Choosing time frames, when to synch and when not, would avoid error messages.

Enhancement request: Currently you have to enter the wifi network names you want to automatically use to sync with, manually. It would be nice to provide a checkbox dialog with all available networks to minimize the possibility of typos.

Hello, For contacts: did you try Copy Contacts? I don’t know whether there are apps for moving calendar entries, but I guess so. You can also export all contacts/events and then import them again into the DAVdroid account (works at least for contacts, but I’m quite sure that there are calendar apps which support import/export). I understand the necessity of this feature, but it shouldn’t be implemented in DAVdroid, but in a third-party app, because it’s not related to DAVdroid (you might want to move events/contacts between other apps’ accounts, too) it’s not part of the CalDAV/CardDAV synchronization, and DAVdroid should be kept as simple as possible.

Here one current example: I schedule in August 2020 a meeting, targeted for Fuji, for 2020-11-11 and send an .ics invitation, bundling tz definitions. Afterwards the Fuji experts change DST rules, so that the switch does not happen on 2020-11-08 but on 2020-12-20. The UTC offset calculations, included in the .ics invitation, are therefore for that meeting wrong. Nobody thinks on regenerating and resending the .ics file with new tz data. If the OS gets updates, then that event might be presented correctly, if the .ics interpreter ignores the bundled TZ definitions, if the .ics interpreter sees no bundled timezone definitions, or if the .ics interpreter shows to the user, that the bundled TZ definitions are outdated, and there are two possible times for the start. There is no ultimate right way on technical level to prevent troubles here, not bundling the time zone definitions in the .ics file saves band width. See also https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/daylight-saving-time-time-zone/fiji-dst-end-date-correction-update-now-available/ba-p/1669658 and https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/daylight-saving-time-time-zone/interim-guidance-on-2020-time-zone-updates-for-fiji/ba-p/1766806 .
