Nextcloud

There are several connection issues at times on the app and the app also feels very janky. Please improve the performance. Other than that I’m very happy with nextcloud.

Apple broke this app.

TL;DR Nextcloud is an open-source self-hostable Google Drive replacement but the iOS app will occasionally lose your data (see below), crash and forcibly log you out. This app is not ready for enterprise use. Pros: * Self-hostable cloud storage with all the niceties of Google Drive. * Able to modify OpenOffice documents if your server is using Collabora Online, and without Collabora, able to modify TXT and Markdown documents. Cons: * App crashes when playing back video which has not yet downloaded. * If you phone runs out of storage you will be forcefully logged out of the app. * Updates are occasionally pushed which forcibly log you out of the app from all accounts. Servers whose certificates were manually verified will need to be re-verified. * Changes to TXT documents will occasionally silently fail to save causing changes to be lost.

Was able to edit markdown files with this app previously but now has an error saying the file was changed outside the editor and can’t be opened. Kind of the point of storing in the cloud isn’t it? Nextcloud has potential to be a great as a replacement for Dropbox but it’s next to useless with iOS. No other app can’t browse files except this app, all folders are empty

Product is great except iOS uploads stay on 0kb upload permanently if on mobile data. Have confirmed the app has access to cellular, wifi uploads work but nothing over mobile data. App will be perfect for our business once fixed.

I’ve just setup my nextcloud server on my raspberry pi, only to find that the app on my phone keeps crashing. It’s very frustrating because I’m uploading my photos to free up storage space, and it’s making the process a lot slower.

I love this app and the underlying Nextcloud server to bits. Every time my kids iPad complains about storage and apple nudges me to fork out hundreds Of dollars to save a measly 10 GB of files I used to get frustrated. Not anymore. I got my own cloud server running in my garage and have 5TB OF STORAGE. never have to worry about deleting files to make room. Enable instant uploads with the option to delete the picture from the device. This way your iPhone or iPad will always be nearly empty yet you will have all your photos at your finger tips. Not just the photos from your mobile devices but any pictures you have uploaded. Love it love it love it!!

The app is so easy to use, I set up a Nextcloud server on my Raspberry Pi 4B, and it worked amazingly good! I definitely recommend this over ownCloud!

I spent hours setting this up as a home server and while the admin documentation is detailed, Nextcloud is not as good as just using an SFTP server. The problem is switching between local and remote network access and the problems associated with address resolution in the home environment. Connecting within the LAN and then later from the WAN yields unpleasant results with unsynchronised caching. Nextcloud presents itself as an opportunity to host your own cloud service but Its clear they’re aiming for enterprise implementation. The app is really only a portal for file transfer and nothing else. But even then, opening documents is hit and miss. Quite often after it opens a document, there is no way of backing out without quitting and reopening the app. Setting up a home Nextcloud server was an interesting experience in hardening the server’s backend but using Nextcloud itself was a let down.

It just doesn’t work, not sure if its how my company has set up the server or if its the app. Its all connected right, but I can’t see any of my files, tried for weeks to fix it, still doesn’t work.
