Description
In the latest CloudNotes version, when the app uploads a new note created on the iOS device, it keeps creating duplicates of that note.
In one case, it created 26 (!) copies of a note before I could interrupt the app.
In some cases during this syncing process, it displays error windows like "Response status code was unaccceptable: 500" or "Response status code was unaccceptable: 404" repeated several times in the window.
This bug is a show stopper; it currently makes the app unusable for me (force quitting and reopening does not change the behaviour).
