## Approximately regular sync

I haven’t heard any use-cases directly from external developers, so these are just guesses:

### Use-cases
### Use-cases (from actual customers)
* **Social media** - periodic upload of photos, periodic preload of content for performance and offline
* **Media Gallery** - process local photos from memory cards in the background

### Expected use-cases (guesses as to what customers would want)
* **News site** - fetching daily news for quick display in the morning
* **Social media** - periodic updates so initial display is content user hasn't seen, even if offline
* **Blog updates** - Updated blog content without having to set up a push server
* **Media Player** - Synchronize content with the cloud (e.g., download pinned media)

These are either "I don't want to / can't set up push" or "updates are so frequent push doesn't make sense".
These are either "I don't want to / can't set up push" or "updates are so frequent push doesn't make sense" or the content is generated on the client and push doesn't help.
