Description

Möbius Sync brings Syncthing to your iPhone or iPad, allowing you to synchronize selected files between iOS devices and other devices supported by Syncthing, without the need for any cloud service.

Supports multiple folders and multiple remote devices. Synchronized folders can be created either:
1. in the Möbius Sync sandbox and files can be added to and retrieved from shared folders via the iOS Files app; or
2. (PAID feature) by accessing other apps' sandboxes. This feature is EXPERIMENTAL and may break other app's functionality.

Uses the open-source Syncthing engine internally.

Usage within the Möbius Sync sandbox is free up to 20MB. Unlimited file sync, including files in other apps' sanboxes is available for a one-time purchase.

The functionality unlocked by in-app purchase is identical to that in Möbius Sync Pro (which is purchased up-front).

Really good

Thanks for taking the time and effort to make this, it works really well.

It would be really nice if photo upload could be added in the future - I do understand why it isn't implemented right now, but I feel like 1-directional sync could work (eg, upload photos from iOS but don't download any). Other sync apps have exactly that; Dropbox, nextcloud, etc.

Aside from that 1 feature being missing, I really like this app and it works great for what I need.

Actually works

I was a bit unsure how well a SyncThing wrapper would work on iOS but this seems effective so far, which is a real relief for me. Due to the oddities of iOS for background scheduling it has to use a few tricks to do so, but it’s no more awkward than any other solution and seems sensible in its setup. So far it seems to use less power than Secure Shellfish does to sync a folder, and it’s more adjustable.

Great

Works really great but it would be great to have more frequent updates of the underlying syncthing engine.

1.27.7 is currently in beta. You can navigate to Github Discussions for more details via https://www.mobiussync.com/faq/
