"Page changed, reloading" displayed, but page doesn't actually seem refresh

Hi,

I'm running SilverBullet (version 2.8.1-0-gdbf3550-2026-05-20T17-43-32Z) on a VM on the Internet and am using the instance from a variety of devices (desktop, laptop, Android mobile) to access my notes from anywhere and keep them in sync.

I've noticed a few times when editing a page on a computer and then accessing that changed page some time later on my Android mobile where SilverBullet is already at that specific page, that there'll appear a blue box with some text like "Page changed, reloading", but I won't actually see the updated content of the page unless I navigate away from it and then come back to it.

I expected the "reloading" part to take care of updating the page, and I have observed this working properly on both my laptop and desktop, but the behavior seems occasionally different on my Android mobile. Would this be considered a bug? If so, could it be SilverBullet-related or is it more likely a limitation or side-effect of (perhaps) power saving on the Android mobile platform?

Thanks!

This should definitely just happen in place. It's built in such a way that it's minimal (preserving your cursor position, scroll position) etc, but the content should definitely change. If it doesn't it's a bug, please report it on Github. As to could this be about energy saving mode: I would doubt that, but Android is the wild west, so who knows :laughing: Please add as much detail to the phone, browser you are using to the issue.

Cool. Thanks for confirming. I have opened issue 2005.
