Hello Android Users

After months of development, the proposed improvements for 1.5.0 are available for testing in the link below.

To touch on the extended wait for uploads (from a few minutes to up to 20) this is to reduce battery usage and improve reliability of uploads. During testing this may seem like a lot, however in real-world usage this is far less noticeable and resolves some of the earlier missed uploads I and a few others were seeing. In addition, all failed uploads are now automatically retried without intervention.

For those who need to manually override the scans for new files or force upload of failed attempts, there’s a new Expert mode in settings to unlock a menu in the uploads area with these options.

Your testing is critical to the development of the Nextcloud Android app, and installing the below shouldn’t impact your normal NC app installation.
