Full description

Syncthing for Android packages Syncthing to be easy to use on and integrate well with Android. It provides an Android-native UI over the web-based interface Syncthing has by default. What is Syncthing? Syncthing replaces proprietary sync and cloud services with something open, trustworthy and decentralized. It's an open-source, free, and privacy-respecting real-time file synchronization program for almost every platform including Linux, macOS and Windows. Syncthing for Android bundles this program optimized for your device. KEY HIGHLIGHTS • 🎨 Material Design 3 UI. (Work in progress). • 📱 Broad Compatibility: Supports Android 6 through Android 17. • 📊 System resource usage graphs. • 🔋 Customizable run conditions to reduce data and battery usage. • 🔒 Private & Decentralized: Your data syncs directly between your devices in encrypted channels, and isn't stored in the cloud. SUPPORT & ISSUES If you find an issue, bug, or have a problem, you can open an issue on GitHub. (https://github.com/SzBenedek2006/syncthing-android) Do not open issues in the upstream project unless I redirect you there with a specific issue. IMPORTANT NOTICES Storage Permissions This is a Backup, Restore, and File Management app. It requires All Files Access (MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE) to perform automated, non-interactive background file synchronization and directory backups. Project Status & Affiliation I am not affiliated with or part of the Syncthing organization. This app is a fork of the archived project (https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing-android), revived as an independent project that I continue developing.
