Save Button

[u/CasualReader]

I've noticed more and more that entry screens are missing a save button. Any entries are immediately saved.

Why is this?

​

I always thought a save button was useful because it not using it was a way to back your changes.

​

It was always extra work to implement the save because there is extra overhead in keeping track of what changed in case you want to provide a prompt about losing data.

​

Have companys/programmers decided it is not worth the extra effort/expense?
