Mac and Android users finally getting some love lol. Curious how you’re handling background sync reliability on Android?

@[Austine] Good question! On Android, background reliability is handled with a two-layer approach: a persistent Foreground Service (with a WakeLock) keeps the Supabase Realtime socket alive while the app is in the background, and a separate background Dart isolate handles message delivery even if the main UI process is killed. For clipboard sync specifically, there's a deliberate workaround for Android 10's background clipboard restrictions — the service wakes the app to foreground first before writing. The one honest gap is boot persistence: the service doesn't auto-restart on reboot, so you'd need to open the app once after a restart. Something I plan to add.
