Möbius Sync 4+

a couple of frustrating bugs

When I go to add a folder, if I first add an external folder (outside the mobius sync folder) it creates the bookmark:xxx identifier as "file path", but when I add a "folder label" (the first text field in the general tab of the add folder modal) the file path is overwritten by your new label, you have to type a label and then select your external folder

Also I deleted the default folder because I didn't need it, when my only folder was that external folder and I tried to sync, there would be no error, the file path would be correct, the state of the folder on my other machine would be correct ("3 directories, 500kb" etc) but nothing would appear on that filesystem. When I added a file on the remote folder, it showed up in the mobius sync folder on my iphone as if it was treating the default folder as the external folder. very screwy and I cried and reinstalled everything before getting it to work.

4 stars because once its setup it works smooth and i know iOS is a PITA so thanks for your work

Missing a key feature for mobile

This is a pretty solid GUI for Syncthing. I’m still experimenting, but there is one key feature that appears to be missing — *especially* important for mobile devices.

I need the ability to selectively sync. I want to see a listing of everything that’s in a given shared directory, but don’t actually download it to my phone unless I say so.

This is available in Resilio Sync, which is the main app I’m considering other than Syncthing. In Resilio I have a synced folder on my home computer that has almost a Terabyte of stuff. On my phone I can browse all of it, and if I want a particular file I tap to download that file to my phone.

Unless I’m missing a setting somewhere, Mobius and Syncthing doesn’t have anything like this. I either download it to my phone or it’s not linked at all. No in between.

Doesn’t work, don’t waste your money.

No matter what I do, when I click “open folder” it won’t take me to the folder I’ve designated for a synced folder. It takes me to the “on my device” folder, and when I manually navigate to the folder I designated, it’s empty. Under the panel in mobius, it claims that my files have been synced. But they’re nowhere to be found in the files app, no matter what I do or where I look. Extremely frustrating. There is no documentation whatsoever on how to properly set up folders, which I have to assume is intentional at this point. Just another iOS app taking your money in exchange for false promises. Extremely frustrating. I’d happily pay $50 for an app that legitimately delivered on the promise of bringing full Syncthing functionality to iOS. But sadly it looks like that will never happen. Unfortunately, I just have to accept that I’m stuck with iCloud Drive as the only working way to sync my files.

A few users have reported this and found that the files appear within the Files app after a phone reboot. Hopefully this works for you, if not please contact us via support channels.
