Samsung Fridge + Edge
That’s an interesting clue - thanks for sharing.
It sounds like the connection is either maintained in the background or gets re-established quickly since you aren’t seeing the Disconnected / Reconnecting message at the bottom of the page and are seeing new value updates.
But it’s not clear why the data from while the screensaver was on wasn’t updated.
What about new events or state changes that occur after the PC wakes up from screensaver?
And are you able to consistently reproduce this on demand? Like are you able to force-start the screensaver and then immediately exit the screensaver and you can reproduce the issue? Per the next section on Mac, one of the challenges is we were not able to manually reproduce it. I would occasionally see it after my Macbook Air was asleep for a long time, but I couldn’t force it to occur by manually putting the Macbook to sleep.
Diagnostic Page (hidden)
I would also note that we have a hidden set of diagnostic information for the socket connection that you can access.
Safari on Mac
Certain versions of Safari on Mac seem to have issues with how they’ve implemented “Web Workers” which is the underlying technology that allows the realtime connection to run in the background.
In my experience, when this happens on Safari on Mac, it means the realtime connection is completely lost since Safari is having issues with the web worker – that means that all status updates going forward fail until you close and reopen the page in Safari.
