|
Files and notifications
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
1. Install the Nextcloud Android client `from Google Play Store <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nextcloud.client>`__ or
|
|
`from F-Droid <https://f-droid.org/packages/com.nextcloud.client/>`__.
|
|
2. Start the app. There are two ways of setting it up:
|
|
|
|
*Either*: enter
|
|
your server URL, continue, enter your user name and password and
|
|
confirm to grant access.
|
|
|
|
*Or*: In Nextcloud's web GUI, go to the
|
|
`user preferences <../userpreferences.html>`_, go to
|
|
**Security**. Generate an App password, click "Generate QR code" and
|
|
tap the QR scanner icon in the Nextcloud app, point your phone's
|
|
camera towards the screen.

Contacts and Calendar
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
With the Nextcloud mobile app
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
1. Install `DAVx⁵ (formerly known as DAVDroid) <https://www.davx5.com/download/>`_ on your Android device,
|
|
`from Google Play Store <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=at.bitfire.davdroid>`__ or
|
|
`from F-Droid <https://f-droid.org/packages/at.bitfire.davdroid/>`__.
|
|
2. In the Nextcloud mobile, go
|
|
to **Settings**/**More**, tap on "**Sync calendars & contacts**".
|
|
3. Now, DAVx⁵ will open Nextcloud's Webflow login window, where you
|
|
will have to enter your credentials and grant access.
|
|
4. DAVx⁵ will open and ask you to create an account. Set the account
|
|
name to one of your choosing, and set **Contact Group Method** to
|
|
**Groups are per-contact categories**.
|
|
5. After this, DAVx⁵ will close and the Nextcloud app reappears. In
|
|
order to finish setup, you have to manually launch DAVx⁵ again.
|
|
6. Tap on the icon for the account DAVx⁵ has just created, when requested grant DAVx⁵ access
|
|
to your calendars and contacts.
|
|
7. When you tap the icon for the account DAVx⁵ has set up, it will
|
|
discover the available address books and calendars. Choose which
|
|
ones you want to synchronize and finish.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Without the Nextcloud mobile app
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
If you do not want to install the Nextcloud mobile app, the following
|
|
steps are required:
|
|
|
|
1. Install `DAVx⁵ (formerly known as DAVDroid) <https://www.davx5.com/download/>`_ on your Android device,
|
|
`from Google Play Store <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=at.bitfire.davdroid>`__ or
|
|
`from F-Droid <https://f-droid.org/packages/at.bitfire.davdroid/>`__.
|
|
2. Optionally install OpenTasks (`Google Play Store <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dmfs.tasks>`__ or
|
|
`F-Droid <https://f-droid.org/packages/org.dmfs.tasks/>`__).
|
|
3. Create a new account ("+" button).
|
|
4. Select **Connection with URL and username**.
|
|
**Base URL:** URL of your Nextcloud instance (e.g. ``https://sub.example.com/remote.php/dav``) and your credentials.
|
|
5. For the **Contact Group Method:** choose the option ``Groups are per-contact categories``.
|
|
6. Click **Connect**.
|
|
7. Select the data you want to sync.
|
|
8. When requested, grant access permissions to DAVx⁵ for your
|
|
contacts, calendars and optionally tasks.
|
|
|
|
.. note:: Enter your email address as DAVx⁵ account name (mandatory if you want
|
|
to be able to send calendar invitation). If your email address is
|
|
registered in your Nextcloud preferences and you have set up your
|
|
account using the Nextcloud mobile app, this all should be already the case.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. note:: Using user name and password will not work if 2-Factor-Authentication
|
|
is enabled and will throw a generic "Unknown resource" error.
|
|
Use a :ref:`dedicated App password <managing_devices>` instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. tip:: DAVx⁵ lists the calendar subscriptions made through the Nextcloud Calendar app, but you need to install the `ICSx⁵ (formerly known as ICSDroid) <https://icsx5.bitfire.at/>`__ app on your Android device, `from the Google Play Store <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=at.bitfire.icsdroid>`__ or `from F-Droid <https://f-droid.org/packages/at.bitfire.icsdroid/>`__ to sync them.
