syncthing-android VS rclone

I use https://github.com/Catfriend1/syncthing-android which has an option to run only every X minutes of each hour, as a decent tradeoff.

This version also ships and Android Quick Settings tile that will start Syncthing for those X minutes and stop it outside of that schedule, so I'll hit the button as I'm putting on shoes to go out after making a shopping list on my phone or what have you

I built something on top of the Syncthing API this week after using it on its own for years.

A local instance of Syncthing can behave as a robust sync tool + inotify API for applications consuming the files: https://docs.syncthing.net/rest/events-get.html#get-rest-eve...

i believe there's an embeddable golang library, but if you want something easy to use on android check in on syncthing-fork which lets you define more granular sync conditions including "just turn on 5 minutes every hour" https://github.com/Catfriend1/syncthing-android

Sideloading this and setting this up via the web GUI is the best way for you to automatically sync files between devices. https://github.com/Catfriend1/syncthing-android/releases

Syncthing-Fork (version 1.27.0.1): File synchronization

You may find some information here: https://github.com/Catfriend1/syncthing-android/wiki/SD-card-write-access

If you're on Android, try Syncthing-Fork to save battery by running only a few minutes each hour

Syncthing fork is fine, download the github version under releases: https://github.com/Catfriend1/syncthing-android

Or there's Syncthing-Fork which I'm about to try (seems to be "better")

rclone: a command-line program to manage files on cloud storage.

Synchronise buckets with Sclone or Rclone

Says that Apple doesn't provide a multi platform API. It doesn't provide any official supported way to access iCloud from Windows, Linux.

There's a ticket covering everything you might ever want to know:

seconding rsync and syncthing.

the server could expose an smb or nfs share, the client could mount it, and then sync to that mount.

rsync over ssh also works, if you do not want to run smb/nfs.

this is also a cool tool https://rclone.org/

rclone [1] to dropbox. works since years without problems

rclone provides a special pCloud config option, which makes the setup straight forward. rclone can encrypt the data it uploads with its own encryption but not with the pCloud encryption. Therefore it can only upload data to the unencrypted pCloud folders, not to the Crypto Folder.

The arkclone project impliments rclone in ArkOS to achieve cloud saves. Not yet built in to ArkOS yet, and not a lot of recent traction on the pull request to get it added, but it can be installed manually.
