Nextcloud version (eg, 20.0.5): 21.0.3
Operating system and version (eg, Ubuntu 20.04): Ubuntu 20.04.2

I’ve been hit by the bug here: Parameter specified as non-null is null · Issue #8370 · nextcloud/android · GitHub

It happened when I upgraded my server to Nextcloud 20, and persisted after upgrading to 21. Rolling back to pre-20 seems like a really bad thing to try.

Can I find older APKs for the Android client? Some info on github indicates that the 3.15 version still works.

Hi @robbie

You can download all releases directly from GitHub.

Thanks! I looked at it yesterday but thought only the zips were available. Digging back further I was able to see that the apks were still there. I installed this one, and it has worked around the problem for now:
