Description
Feature description
It would be great if the DB-migration page would update itself and finally switch to the actual app UI when it is done.
Problem or use case
Currently when a DB upgrade is in progress a static text page is shown with the current log output.
But this page does not update by itself.
So without user interaction it will never go to the actual app, once the migration is done, or show any progress.
Alternatives or workarounds
I wrote this line of code to fix this:
