Is there a way to reinitiate auto-upload in the NC Android app?

I’ve set up auto-upload for my camera folder and it detected some new photos I took correctly. But I had some connection issues and the upload failed.
How do I re-trigger that upload?
Also, if I mistakenly stop upload of a file from the “Upload” page on Android app menu, is there a way to manually trigger auto-upload so it scans and uploads the new files in the directory?

For a while force closing the app and relaunching worked, but apparently it doesn’t anymore. Pausing/unpausing equally does nothing. I also would like to know if there is an option to trigger upload.
If not, a button for this would be really nice since it really breaks workflow if you need to wait for 5-10 mins for the auto-upload to kick in.

I have the same issue on iOS .
It’s a complete mess.
It uploads approximatly 1gb of files and then it stops until I look at app again .

I’ ve just seen a message about a server side error and I should contact the admin.
I will try this too.
My Nextcloud is hosted by Hetzner

I have the same issue. took 5 photographs but only 3 got uploaded. I wonder how many pictures are actually missing because I never noticed it before.

I would really like to have a way to manually trigger this. Its been now 2 hours and it hasn’t picked up on the missing pictures.

Same issue here, especially for custom folder :frowning:

Sometimes the connection error will appear, if the device turns into sleep mode.
If you tap in “Uploads” next to the icon, the upload will be retried (Android App V 3.30.8.)
If the upload progress bar is shown with no progress, pause and restart upload by tap on the button in the upper right corner.

It’s been already 2 years since I started using nextcloud and it’s been great in many ways but one - auto-sync / instant-upload.

Ok, I don’t even know where to begin.

  • no way to manually run the sync job
  • no way to restart the sync job on fail
  • triggering of sync seems to be random and intermittent
  • sync implementation is wrong, it must use a seperate worker service independent of the app

Please fix, nextcloud team. Thanks. And for starters, really, add a f**** manual trigger sync button jesus christ.

Thank you,
Love nextcloud
