Bug: dates and times in call log not updated
asked 2014-02-08 11:28:01 +0200
The time/date that is shown in the call log are not updated until a new call is made. This can be confusing about when the last call was actually made, especially if one makes calls seldom. E.g. if I call person A on Monday 07:00 and then don't make any calls before Friday. When I open up the call log it will just show the time 07:00 without any date, thus giving the impression that I just called person A, although it was made several days ago.
It updates on reboot too.

jovirkku ( 2020-04-22 12:36:53 +0200 )editIn the meanwhile, note that you can tap any item in the call log and expose a detailed view of it. There, in the Activity section, you can see all events with date and time. This would help to prevent any confusion.
It is understandable, of course, that a glance to the main view of call log can cause confusion. It should work so that only the time is shown until 24 hours has passed form the event. AFter that, it should get the name of the weekday and later on the proper date.
