Eventually you will find the picture which havenât been uploaded in the history view of the app where you can re-trigger an upload attempt. The only other way to get it uploaded is by manually selecting and uploading them.
Iâve got same probleme here (Xiaomi Mi 9 with Android 9). App uploaded only new photo that i made after install. The old photos are not uploaded at all.
Same here with oneplus 5! Will only upload newly taken photos
Currently that is how it works by design. You have to upload the already existing photos manually.
There is currently no other way to do a first sync.
3.11 currently in development will ship with a feature to ask the user also upload existing images
Good to hear.
A lot of my photos were never autouploaded, at different times. Then when I fiddle with the client for a while, it awakens and starts uploading new ones, but never the forgotten ones.
This âupload old stuff as wellâ would be a way to fix the above.
Itâs works with the last version of the app (version 3.11.0) and it works well !
No, it does not work.
I tried to change the destination folder while files were being uploaded. Everything that was queued for upload in the old folder just⊠stopped syncing.
This thread is over 2 years old. The first 10 pages of reviews confirm that auto-upload is completely broken. Thereâs a dozen threads on various sites, and countless github issues.
How long should we wait before giving up?
You need to turn off battery saving option for the Nextcloud app
This has nothing to do with battery savings. The phone is connected to the charger and the app is in the foreground. This is a separate issue.
In the end, the solution was to reinstall the app and reconfigure everything. The exact same configuration started working again. Clearing the app cache did not fix it.
After a reinstall, I had the battery saving issue that you mentioned, but that was much easier to fix.
If you know it better then please tell us the solution
If I knew the solution I wouldnât be here, would I?
I already ruled out the battery savings issue as described above. Thanks for your support.
Then auto upload should work
Seems broken here too. From 6 configured folders, only 1 seem to continue working. When configuring it was already a miss and go. Suddenly it started working for a short time.
Battery savings are disabled for the app.
For me it doesnât work either but on my buddyâs phone it started uploading pictures right awayâŠeven the old ones.
This is still broken. Battery issues are not it. I get a message about server maintenance mode, but Iâve validated that is not the case. Please help.
Just installed nextcloud and having the same issue. Iâve disable battery saving and still having an issue.
Is there a fix for this?
This is the biggest disappointment with Nextcloud. And it has been this way for years now. Several years ago you could upload folders from android. It has been not worked for me after several different phones and installations of nextcloud. THis needs more attention and I fear is bigger issue than what developers seem to think. Where is the feedback loop? Seems completely dead with no news for years.
You need to turn off the battery saving function for the Nextcloud app. Thatâs all
Turning off battery optimization for the Nextcloud app does not resolve this issue. With optimization turned off, on the charger and connected to WiFi with the Nextcloud app on the foreground, it still will not auto-upload files. Itâs been this way on and off for years now. Right now my phone hasnât auto-uploaded files since June.
