Steps to reproduce

  1. Add one Account to iOS App

Expected behaviour

In the Files App now shown both accounts, but as Description the Username (maybe including Server Name in brakets)

Actual behaviour

In the Files App now shown both accounts, but as Description the User GUID is shown Circled in yellow in the screenshot image

Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?

Because the GUID are not known by Users

@marinofaggiana I installed the new version 7.1.3 and the problem always exists?

The account must be removed ... the service provider needs to re-register

@marinofaggiana i removed the user and added the account new im the app, but it shows always the GUID

Mmm can you try with the versione in TestFlight ?

marinofaggiana avatar Sep 16 '25 18:09 marinofaggiana

@marinofaggiana Also with the new version in TestFlight the problem exists

I don't understand ... I did a test and it takes the user... so I don't understand why it doesn't work for you

@marinofaggiana I deleted the app completely and installed new and there is always shown the GUID after setup the accounts new

@marinofaggiana I Testes now the new iOS 26 Version and there is always the Problem. Inthink, the Problem is, that the link technical is not correctly removed in the files app, when you delete an account in the Nextcloud app.
