Description

Describe the bug
With the latest otherwise awesome UI improvements, we have lost the display of the update date/time on folders. Have this value explicitly displayed is extremely helpful, indicating whether a manual refresh would be advantageous.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. View individual folder or folder list

Expected behavior
A display of the last update date&time or indication that the folder is currently in push mode.

Research direction

Start by viewing an individual folder and the folder list, then trace the Android UI responsible for rendering folder status. Restore a visible last-update date/time or an indication that the folder is in push mode, and verify both views show the expected status.
