Bug Description

I entered a space that has only one document called untitled with empty content in it. It may have been a week since I have last entered but this time an error appeared that redirected me to github to issue this bug

How to Reproduce

Create a space on mobile or desktop app. (Because I don't remember in which device I've created the space)
Create a document in the space and don't touch.
Exit the space and go play in other spaces in mobile or desktop for some time.
Go to desktop app and open the space.
If that wasn't the way to reproduce it then the problem must be mobile and dektop session sync issue because I sometimes modify my spaces without being connecter to the internet which might cause some conflicts. That is my assumption

Expected Behavior

sreeen shows error that redirects to github issues. it has no explanation or description of what is the problem or what caused it. The documents that are in the spaces were not visible (the empty Untitled document)

Operating System

Desktop

AppFlowy Version(s)

latest as for the time of issuing this bug

Screenshots

The problem disappeared after entering the space on my mobile phone. so the problem is fixed

Additional Context

No response

Hi @Abdssamie, based on your description, I believe it’s caused by the sync strategy. The page will be synced when you open it on the device where it was created. We will work on improving the strategy to try to sync the doc as soon as it is created.
