Feature Request for an awesome open source cloud platform that respects users privacy

Could it be possible to make some type of null video or audio player that would allow the app to stay open while it syncs,

I have many apps that open Picture in Picture - and can be slid to the side and opened when I need to switch apps - so the content or data stream / connection stays active.

I think if you could implement something like this the app could work for much longer periods without interruption given the limitations placed on it from iOS framework.

So to recap - imagine opening the app, and checking the transfers - à small PIP icon appears allowing some sort of background media to play. It can be a loop of just the logo and àn uploading status bar / icon mp4 gif file.. just something to trigger a player window. Then it can be moved to the side or minimized so it can be periodically opened and checked on.. to keep it active.

Also if there was a way to embed some sort of VLC player that could work within the app - like a web player - that works with offline files - so you can actually see your content or listen to your audio files etc, would be super helpful!

I am impressed with how this app has improved to work within the constraints of iOS.

It would be nice if it had the option to set a checksum value for how many files to chunk and then delete or keep instead of waiting for tens of thousands of files to complete - so that storage can be carved out and only desired data saved on the local device.

Thanks for pouring so much love into this platform!
It’s truly a data revolution that gives people an option to exit other big data competitors without exploiting their info as a condition of using the service.
It’s especially important these days given the rampant
techno-facist overreaches into a digital environment that many of us were lured into by clicking Got It!
It’s time to “ctrl+alt+escape” that with Nextcloud!

Just spins when trying to connect to owncloud server

Works great in android. Apple still sucks.

Медиа

Не понимаю, но мне кажется что медиа работает криво. Получается что происходит процесс автозагрузки фото и видео на облако, сортируется по папкам(годам) правильно, а вот если просматривать фото в медиа, то получается что фотографии 5 летней давности, отображаются 15 августа 2026 года, хотя кладется в папку 2021 года, но при этом сейчас вообще сентябрь

Collabora Bug

I can’t edit docx files in mobile app. It just shows 0kb. I tried everything and nothing worked. Collabora is fully functional on web browser. Please fix

Private and secure cloud storage

I’m no computer expert, but with a bit of help from ChatGPT an inexpensive Raspberry pi, I had Nextcloud setup and running for my entire family. You can either use a tunnel like Cloudflare or Tailscale to access your Nextcloud on all of your devices from anywhere.

Great app with lots of features, but E2EE feature does exist yet

The app is loaded with features that make it excellent for accessing cloud files on iOS on the go. The syncing of photos is also seamless!
This would be 5 stars, but the app/client-side E2EE continues to receive the checksums error regardless of updating/reinstalling the app and resetting E2EE on my server, leading me to believe this feature is just not available for iOS yet. It works on every other device I have except iOS. I have Joplin using an E2EE folder and it works fine on iOS.
This appears to be a known issue for iOS users and there just doesn’t seem to be support for this at the moment. I’d love to see E2EE support in the future!

Thankful but…

This thing doesn’t get treated like the first class storage provider it should be. The iPhone file management workflows are trash garbage (Apple’s fault) and I can never easily send files into this storage provider. It’s always a hassle to move anything in (out is easy). Whenever I “share” to the app there’s a good chance, depending on file type, that it will fail (esp. JSON which it tries to open in some assistant thing?)…maybe I’m using this wrong but it’s very painful to even browse the files via native Files app and I can’t directly save anything into the Nextcloud storage provider. It just does not work. I hope they’ll fix in the future. Considering dumping iPhone.

Кэш

Недавно стал счастливым обладателем собственного сервера, на который был установлен Nextcloud, но, к сожалению, выявились некоторые минусы.

Один из них: приложение Nextcloud на iPhone. Оно раздувается вместе с перенесенной информацией, и получается, что вместо удаленного хранения файлы хранятся еще и в твоем телефоне, дублируя информацию. Это очень неудобно, и прошу вас исправить это в срочном порядке.

Best local cloud app!

I’ve been using this app for several years now, and it’s been a backbone for my home network. Whether you’re moving pics, screenshots, documents or pretty much anything, it’s a solid app. The only time it has ever not worked was due strictly to my server configuration after an update. It is full featured, and works seamlessly on my iPhone and iPad. Great app!

Доработайте, пожалуйста!

Уважаемые разработчики и создатели , безусловно огромная благодарность за это приложение . Но могли бы вы сделать так , чтобы приложение работало в фоновом режиме , то есть фото можно было загружать не находясь в открытом приложении . И добавьте , пожалуйста, функцию выбора фотографий зажатием и листанием вниз, а то каждую фото приходится отдельно тыкать и выбирать
Спасибо !!!

Love using NC

I love using Nextcloud as my private self-hosted cloud instead of GDrive. But I had issues with the iOS version.

UPDATE: Found out what the problem was. My NC server was outdated and wasn’t communicating properly with the app. Upgrading was grueling, but it works now.

Keep your opinion to yourself about running in background

Developer for 4 years refuses to disable or add toggle to notification about “keep the app running in the background”

Версия?

Установил. Запускаю. Пишет что устаревшая версия. Обновления нет — установлена последняя доступная версия. Что это?

Нормальное

Приложение очень удобное и простое в использовании. В нем есть все необходимые функции для быстрых вычислений, а интерфейс понятен даже новичку. Особенно нравится, что приложение работает быстро и не зависает во время работы.

Best alternative To Google/OneDrive

I’ve been using nextcloud now for several years. I only have one user myself and it’s not on the internet. That being said, my phone syncs my photos to my nextcloud instance whenever I come home, also my calendars and contacts. Are there bugs… yes at times there are and the nextcloud developers do an excellent job of maintaining this (remember free) software. Great job guys!

Please remove the warning about using of an older version server.

Or let me have an opinion to disable the warning. Thank you very much!!!

Bugs

Trips de bugs en permanence. Si tu bouges, ça ferme

Broken by upgrade

Latest version crashes on startup immediately. App Store claims it needs 17.0 or later, but app reports OS not supported. Amateur hour release process. Cannot actually report a problem to dev; only provides options to get a refund (for a free app).

Error of the assistant via openai

Could not generate

Not work
