Starting from today, the Nextcloud Android client 3.12.1 is available in the app store! This is a minor release which brings many small bug fixes and lots of improvements & refinements. As always, with this blog we want to remind you a few cool features that make your cloud-life easier!
In case you missed it, we released Android client 3.12.0 with some awesome new features last month:
Read here for details on those and more!
Note: This release will be available on Fdroid after up to 24 hours.
Of course many fixes, refinements and features are being made regularly and older versions of Nextcloud are not supported. If you run an outdated, unsupported Nextcloud, the Android app will warn you of the risks. Nextcloud 13 is the oldest release that will work with this version of our app and you will get a warning if you are still running Nextcloud 15 or older.
Enterprise users
Note that Nextcloud offers long term support for companies, as sometimes they have to use older versions. Contact our sales team for more information on this.
Private users
Note that this version of the Nextcloud Android client (version 3.12.1) is supported on Android 4.2 and newer. We strongly recommend private users to upgrade their Nextcloud servers.
As a result of the Collabora Online integration with the Nextcloud Android client, you can directly print files from within Collabora. No need to download the file on your device, choose “print” in the menu and get it done!
Markdown files are an easy way of taking meeting notes with your colleagues, drafting a new proposal during a team call, writing down some quick ideas or thoughts etc. After structuring the text with basic formatting in a human-readable way you usually have to get back to it, maybe on the go, edit it again on your mobile and have full access on the content of that file. Maybe you need to share it with other people that will access it on their mobile. Or you might even need to create a complete new text file quickly using your mobile client.
Here’s a reminder that this is possible through Nextcloud Files for Android 😉
Note that this feature is available in version 3.10.0 or newer.
Enabling the dark mode while using your devices enhances visual ergonomics and reduces eye strain. It adjusts the screen colours according to current light conditions, providing more comfort at night or in dark environments.
Change the settings from your Nextcloud for Android app and go from “Light” to “Dark”, or simply choose the “Follow system” option, which automaticly adapts to your device’s settings.
Note that this feature is available in version 3.10.0 or newer.
