I’ve been using Nextcloud for years, but the Android app is killing me. Basic features are still missing, bugs go unfixed for ages, and even when I submit PRs to help, they rot in GitHub purgatory.
- Why does uploading files still randomly fail?
- Why does the “sync” function barely work?
- Why is the app still not fully aware when offline and/or server is not reachable?
I get that it’s open-source and resources are limited, but the glacial pace is pushing me (and probably others) toward alternatives.
Questions for the crowd:
-
Is anyone else this frustrated? Or am I just cursed with bad luck?
-
Are there forks or third-party clients that actually work reliably? (Is this the time to switch to ownCloud?)
-
How do we get Nextcloud to prioritize Android? The server gets all the love, but mobile is where most people actually use things.
Rant over. Thanks for listening.
