i have the opposite problem: I disable "Only upload on wifi" but it still only uploads when i am connected to wifi.

I know, because i rarely ever connect to wifi networks. When i checked the target folder, it only contained 10month old pictures. I then connected my phone with a wifi network and it started uploading within seconds.

I trust the auto-upload with my data. It is my only backup solution for my pictures. Seeing it work so unreliable is very concerning and breaks my trust into the app and nextcloud.

Some "force upload now" button like mentioned in #15887 could help as a workaround.

Hello

@luckyhandler @ygerlach

Auto-Upload logic completely redesigned. Could you please try with 3.35.0 RC2 and share your feedback with us?
