cryptomator
Automatic syncing of directories
Basic Info
It would be nice to have the android app sync selected folders automatically to and from the phone.
Open questions
- [ ] Store synced files unencrypted and outside of Cryptomator on the device or should the files remain encrypted? (storing encrypted would just be #24)
- [ ] Allow to switch between one-way and two-way sync?
- [ ] To prevent useless download/upload of unchanged files we would need some way of modification detection.
- [ ] Allow to sync only using WLAN or also using the mobile network?
More details pending.
Dito. Manual encryption can be a pain. Automated sync would be so much better, like it is on desktop.
Agreed, automated syncing is a must for such type of solutions. IMO the current photo sync is difficult to manage as it synchronises all new image files to a single directory in the cloud. It'd be much better if we could have it only sync the screenshots and camera directories in different directories in the cloud respectively, for example.
Try to use FolderSync app and a local storage in Cryptomator app.
FolderSync may be scheduled per time interval, WiFi, bi-directional, etc. However, it does not support "sync on file update", although I think this could be resolved via Tasker plugin...
I absolutely wonder why this really essential feature isn't pushed more. I guess there would be thousands of new users If this would work. Especially for photo upload.
I was hoping to use this in conjunction with Markor to create a snappier Joplin replacement. Just allowing it to work as on desktop(provide unencrypted directory for other apps to use, sync that, lock depending on settings) would make more use cases like mine(and others's) possible.
I would also love this feature to basically create an encrypted backup of all the data on my phone, that I find important.
I would love to have this feature too. Without this feature the app is not suitable for my usecase.
Is there already a Plan in the near future? I would like to use this feature :)
It would be awesome to have this feature implemented so i could automatically upload my stuff, also it could include something like "Select a folder in server & sync it locally" just to have bidirectional syncing
If Cryptomator would extend its Features to have really essentials like Synching folders and preserve folders on Photo upload it could dramatically raise their sellings. I really would donate / pay 50€ for a Cryptomator Version which has these features. So i could use Cloud storage in my smartphone without headache about my privacy.
As good new smartphones don't come with extendable storage anymore a lot more people would Love to have these features.
What can we do to achieve this?
How's the status/prio? Isn't the sync code comparable to the photo upload feature? To be honest, this is a basic feature. Thanks =)
I second this. Is there a chance this will be in the next development pipeline?
The feature would not only make Cryptomater (CM) by far outstanding on android and a competitor with the big ones, but also solves the automatic photo upload from a self defined source at the same time.
