Issue in page Nextcloud - Android

Open julian-source-1 opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

I would like to report an issue in page https://docs.start9.com/0.3.4.4/guides/service-guides/nextcloud/nextcloud-setup/nextcloud-android

Problem

Setting up a mobile client app for Nextcloud Tasks was challenging for me. I think a little more detail should be added concerning how to sync tasks.

Suggest a fix

I recommend elaborating on the specific DAVx5 settings required to hook up the tasks app. When I first attempted to set up a mobile client app for Nextcloud Tasks, I was confused as to why my Nextcloud Notes mobile app and Simple Calendar Pro app were successfully syncing, but jtx Board was not.

I was able to fix this issue by modifying a DAVx5 setting. I went to Settings > Connection and then switched the Proxy type to SOCKS (for Orbot). Everything started syncing properly after that.

I also think you should recommend a specific task app for Start9 users to download (I like jtx Board). Originally, when I saw the task section when I was first setting up DAVx5 to sync my Calendar, I skipped the tasks section because I wrongly assumed that Nextcloud had a specific app for this.

We are in the middle of an update of the OS and docs, I can get this updated following the completion of that. If you have specific language in mind, PRs are very much appreciated.
