After proof-reading my post, I noticed I’m clumsy when using the word app. I hope I’ve been somewhat helpful! Let me know if I’ve still been too unclear.

I also tried “owncloud” because many of them still work with Nextcloud. In F-Droid, I searched for “nextcloud” to get a decently long list of Android apps to play with. Yet I’m able to get ownCloud server apps like Mozilla Sync 1.4 working just fine in Nextcloud. I was just having a discussion in the ownCloud forum where a guy was trying to make the Nextcloud Bookmarks app work with ownCloud, but couldn’t (he just gets a blank page). Each webDAV project can create their own incompatible framework using webDAV, which is why you’re better off sticking with apps that are Nextcloud specific (or writing your own with Nextcloud in mind).įor example, over the last year Nextcloud has diverged from ownCloud to the point that some client and server apps work with both NC and OC, but others don’t.

WebDAV is a protocol that is used to create a communication framework. So does the web interface, when you’re uploading and downloading or using certain server apps*. The Nextcloud Android app! That works via webDAV, and so does the Nextcloud desktop app. Do you know a Android APP which works where I could test to access the file or folder to test that WebDAV works well?
