Sync deletions from mobile to server

Dear community,

How can I sync deletions from my mobile device to server? I tried both official client for Android and foldersync with WebDav after delete some files on the next syncronization it downloads the deleted files again from server. My expected behaviour would be replicate the deletion to te server and my other synced devices.

Nextcloud version: 13.0.4
Operating system and version : Ubuntu 18.04 Server
Apache or nginx version : 2.4.29
PHP version : 7.2.5
Mobile: Galaxy S8
Android: 8.0 Oreo

You need two-way sync, which the NC app doesn’t support yet… but foldersync, I thought, did.

Sorry to hear the official doesn’t support. Let’s hope it gets included in the near future.

You’re right, FolderSync provides and works verywell with any other sync I ever tried (smb, dropbox, drive…) but even setting as bi-diretional for WebDav (with NextCloud) it always seems to act live server-to-local.

Thank you for your input Jason.
