      3. Site version: The version of the Lucidity system overall

      4. Debug: When this mode is enabled additional information will be logged to help developers track down any issues that may be experienced. Please only enable this mode when requested to do so

      5. Items not saved to server: Indicates the number of items on the device that have not saved to the server. Items will be added to the queue as they are saved on the device and removed once they have been saved to the server. If any items are in the queue and the user logs out from the device, those items will not be saved.

Saved Changes

Any un-synchronised changes will be lost once logged out. It is therefore recommended to only log out of the App when in online mode.
