Aside from the occasional file conflict from files that haven't changed, it works great. I don't believe the issue is unique to Android.

Perfect with Obsidian.md. It took me a bit of tutorial work to get the android, iOS and Windows versions of Obsidian talking to each other, but this fork of Sync thing made it possible. Now I can play my solo RPGs across whatever device I've got on me for maximum convenience.

I can hardly complain at all, it works so well when it works which is 99 percent of the time for me. I find it eats the majority of my battery on my phone, even on days of heavy streaming service usage, so -1 star there. This can be managed with timed syncs but if I edit my synced folder with that setting you have to disable it to get a manual sync to other devices immediately. I can only imagine this battery usage issue is because there is no low-cost way to scan for edited files on Android

Deleted all other folder files on the picked directory without warnings, did not create a subfolder for it

Complete trash. I've tried everything trying to sync it with another device and nothing happened except battery drain. It's total trash with no instructions.

Unless you have a technical background, don't use this. You'll end up deleting all of your files from all devices. It's unreliable, clunky to set up, and the UI just isn't great. I'm surprised there's not a better version of this. Shame as it has a lot of potential, but it seems the default design is to let the app just remove all of your files with no versioning turned on by default. Be warned, great risk of losing all your files.

Unfortunately it's unusable with how limited its view of the Android directory it has for what I need. Was trying to use to sync a folder in my Termux directory, but it can't find it like Total Commander file manager can.
★★☆☆☆Gustav· Feb 18, 2026
Very glitchy. Great idea but it says "out of sync" when it works perfectly, and it says "up to date" when it's not. I display conflicts when there are no conflicts, and it says nothing when the app is broken.
