Feature description

Problem you may be having, or feature you want:

SettingsNetworkUpdate time is a bit strange to use. It shows different popups when clicking, contains too much text and does not show the current state directly. All in all, it does not "feel" nice to me - dialogs change completely, no consistency.

Suggested solution:

Rename to "Look for new episodes" or "Automatic refresh". Change the layout:

Thanks for suggesting this - nice improvement!
The title is tricky. First I thought of 'Automatic feed updates' (I find 'Refresh' a bit unclear). But I think "Look for new episodes" is better, as it clearly indicates what it does without using technical or vague terms like feed or refresh. It doesn't mention that it's about the time, but this will be apparent from the description.

As for the mock-ups, one comment: please, PLEASE no AM/PM system. It's the most confusing time annotation ever. If implemented, it should only be shown of it is the device default.

@FivelMttz Should we assign to you?

Yes, please 馃榿

(Will do tomorrow as it's not possible from the mobile app, but feel free to start already if you want ;) )
