problems with syncing from android

[lcc 5]

for the past few weeks, i have been having issues with syncing from android

sync seems to get "stuck". 

one of the symptoms is that after saving edits, i can no longer edit or go back to the home screen.. i have to terminate and restart the app.

other times, there is no notification of the issue, so as i continue to go back into a note after saving to make more edits, i am unaware that previous edits have not synced, and this sometimes ends up creating additional copies of the note instead of updating the note that has not synced.  

currently on android 10.39 (1125601) ,though this was happening on 10.38 and likely earlier versions as well
