Only crashes
I just started using this service, and I want to like it so bad. The Linux desktop app works well for me so far, but I haven't been able to use the iOS app here successfully at all. My first real use case (and reason for signing up) is to share large video files (for example, a much longer than necessary elementary school musical), beyond what Ente supports. But attempting to do literally anything with the files mov files uploaded from Linux results in either a hang or a crash. I hope this isn't the rewrite that I've seen discussed in places. I guess I can look forward to that.

Music pause when I minimise the app
App is good but music pauses when I minimise in iphone 13,
Is that intentional feature or it is a bug, whatever it is this should be fixed.

Sign up is a pain
I tried to make an account so I can download a file online. Despite having an account set up page, you cannot sign up using the app. You have to do it online. I tried to on the app for like 20 minutes.
Notes 😭
I decided to move my Apple Notes to Filen, and it was an absolute nightmare. At first, I thought everything went great and smoothly, but soon I found out that I hadn’t transferred anything at all, because everything either disappeared for an unknown reason or simply wasn’t saved. I also noticed an interesting “feature”: when you change the note type (for example, from plain text to rich text) while you already have some text in it, the text just disappears. Don’t get me wrong — I really like the app, and I can see you have some really good and convenient ideas, like Notes and Music, for instance, but the implementation is really not good enough to use those features. I also believe I lost some of my uploaded photos, but I can’t prove it.

Reliable and secure
Really appreciate having alternative cloud storage options that are reliable, secure and privacy preserving. I found Filen after shutting down my iCloud that was spamming me by Apple. Do you need a way to backup your iphone photos without paying thousands of dollars to a multi-trillion dollar company? This cloud service makes a great backup option! Great customer service too, I had reached out more than once and the kind people there were quick and efficient at getting my issues resolved quickly. I highly recommend this. Thank you Filen.
