Need more nodes for sync on ios

Hi,

I am new here, but it’s just has been an horrible experience on ios.

Could we have more official nodes with less restrictions (so reachable through vpn) and with less latency or something?

Because I am stuck on all my ios devices with different wallets, on different vpn, on attempting to sync and most of the times it is onle xmr-node.cakewallet.com which is responding.

Pleeeasssee??? Unless there is already a list somewhere and I missed it?

Thanks in advance

Hi, we discussed internally at the time and couldn’t pinpoint what could be causing issues for iOS users, nor do we experience them ourselves. Has this sorted itself out, or no changes yet? Just checking in!

Okey it resolved itself but I havé nos other people of m’y entourage having the same problem but on android this Time.

They also tried different vpn, also an Orbot proxy localized on their website. They are all on attempting to sync.

But in the mean time I would say this:

1/ a green dot does not mean shit. Because if you go through a proxy like orbot it simply means that you have connection to your proxy. It does not accurately gives you a monitoring ping to the actual node.

2/ again a green dot does not mean shit because your sync could be rejected because the node is being a cloudflare or something or having a problem. The option of SSL could be refused, the option of trusted could be refused.

3/ we don’t know what does technically do both of the option stated above

4/ I have stumbled upon Monero.fail referenced on a subreddit. It would have been nice to have a little… I don’t know … pop up inside the app to tell us that most of police and law enforcements and dictatorship have put in place their own node to be able to control who ever exchange with their ip logged?

4-follow-up) and that we need to put in place our own monero node with a link to a clear tutorial step by step like you would have quality documentation for the openzfs project for Debian for example. Where you have a step by step of this complex installation? A tor node in comparison is mostly automatic to setup, and so therefor their documentation sucks about the conf settings and what it means and how it is related to cou and ram usage for example.

5/ we actually don’t know, because there is no information anywhere about this, if a node could reject your attempted to sync ? And for what reason.
