Hello,

I just notice weird bug with recent iOS app on iPhone 13. It seems if you mistakenly open Nextcloud app and if there is not valid route to server at that instance it simply forget what need to sync.

I have Nextcloud app on iOS which point to 192.168.x.x IP and it works totally fine. It is behind VPN tunnel directly to 192.168.X.X network. BUT, if in any reason VPN is not reachable, and if i open Nextcloud app to sync - upload tab stays blank, no new files found, i waited some time i got no timeout error either, but files never synced.

Next step, when VPN is reachable, i want to do that sync again nothing happens, it behave like theres no files to sync. I think it registered those files already synced without double-checking. Then i need to select them manually in photo library, so it uploads them fine.

Any chance when connection is not reachable that app actually remember that files are not synced at all?

Thanky you!
