hey @bexxter and welcome to the community-forum of NC.

Have you searched the forum for similar problems, first?

I mean we had some problems with Android-Nextcloud (from Google playstore) during last weeks… They had to do with google wanting us to remove some neccessary permissons from the app in order to download it from playstore.

You could try running android nextcloud app from f-droid (“appstore”). It should run without any problems. It’s an official version as well. And it still has all the permissions that it needs to run correctly.

maybe that would help you with your problem as well.

I have the app version 3.30.6 (previous version) installed on my Android phone.  
I could watch, that uploads will not start immediatelly as older versions did, but i had to wait several minutes, before the upload began.  
Same happens, if I send files from my phone to nextcloud.

I put back 3.30.6 to my phone and tested with 42 photos, it worked flawless.

@bexxter ,

No. Our method is select pics from devices gallery app, than tap to share to nextcloud and select folder.

If i try select files through nextcloud app, that is slow to load files from camera folder and slow to start upload.

Disable auto-update in Google Play - App under Settings as well as in F-Droid.

No it does not.  
Version 3.30.8.

The phone still needs to be restarted until the automatic upload starts, and sometimes not all files have been uploaded. And then you can manually search around to find which files are missing and then upload them manually.

I don’t want to [look for bugs anymore](https://help.nextcloud.com/t/official-nextcloud-android-app-is-horror-any-forks-or-alternatives/197415)!

On my Android device auto-upload (version 3.30.8 from F-Droid) starts after an indefinite delay - sometimes after 2 minutes, in many cases after more than 15 minutes.

Had same problem… Long long long story ended by setting app to not automatically update (not sure if this matters) uninstalling, restarting phone, reinstalling… Everything uploaded…
