I am a massive fan of simplEOS, the wallet created by @eosrio is by far the best wallet both aesthetically and functionally we have right now in my opinion. Saying that, yesterday I logged into the app to perform my daily routine of block producer voting when I noticed that a couple of my airdrops had disappeared from the right-hand side when I was in the history tab, I like to check for new airdrops whenever I am in the app.
I jumped over to eospark.com, entered my account name and saw that all the airdrops I was expecting to see were still in my account, that was odd but a relief that I still had them. I went back into simplEOS, cast my votes and thought it prudent to check my airdrop listings again, maybe performing an action would toggle the GUI, I was wrong, another airdrop had disappeared from my list. No big deal, I knew I still had the airdrops assigned to me and carried on with my day.
I spent the evening RAM trading quite a bit, jumping in an out the market within 30-minute periods as the price fluctuations were too good to miss. I logged back into simplEOS to see what damage I had done to my balance, only to see that all my airdrops had now disappeared. I shut down and reloaded the app, but to no avail, OK, this had to be a bug of some sort. I jumped into the @eosrio telegram channel to speak with the admin who is always extremely helpful, and I got a quick response. Once I reported what I was seeing, the first question she asked was:
Indeed I d0 have a lot of actions as I vote multiple times a day right now as I am trying to add as much value as I can to the block producer selections and am trying to remove those near the top that have no place being there. Also, when I make a trade on the RAM market, I get two entries for every complete trade, one for a buy action and another for a sell action. I replied to Domi, and she then told me that this issue was due to the way airdrops are tracked in the app, simplEOS tracks them in your history log when they are airdropped to you, but for resource management, the app only stores x amount of transactions. I wondered how the @eosrio team managed to automatically add airdrops to the app without having to amend any code at all. Tracking airdrops this way is not a sustainable solution, and the team have acknowledged the issue and are working on a fix, I do hope automatic entries will still be a feature and not need manual intervention from the user.
