more exactly: "they *often* don't see each other"

Recently I had to format my smartphone. Maybe this can explain this strange behavior? I tried uninstalling and reinstalling KDEconnect on Smartphone, but nothing to do...
Comment 3 Duns 2020-01-05 17:19:20 UTC 
Same behavior in different PC (with KDE Neon, last release): kdeconnect only works if 1) I open the smartphone and 2) I at the same time do a refresh (kdeconnect-cli --refresh). When I go out and then I return the connection is lost (which is normal) but to reactivate it, it is not enough that you open the smartphone: I have to refresh the PC.
Disistalled e reinstalled several times bot on smartphone and on PC.

with my new smnartphone and (maybe) new kdeconnect releases (both on smartphone and PC Linux) this issue is solved!
