I’ve setup my iPhone to sync my calendar and contacts with my Google account. The sync process itself works fine, my complaint is with the ‘Fetch New Data’ options.
I don’t use push for this, I’m happy to get more battery life at the expense of not having immediate updates. That leaves me with these interval options:
- Every 15 Minutes
- Every 30 Minutes
- Hourly
- Manually
I really don’t need hourly updates for my calendar and contacts, so I’m left with ‘Manually’. What I’d really like is longer intervals to select from, more in the range of 8, 12 and 24 hours. Syncing in the background a few times day would be plenty for me.
