Often times, you need to open and view a PDF on your mobile. With the new built-in PDF viewer for Nextcloud Files, you can do just that even if you don’t have another PDF viewer on your device. This feature has all the basic functionalities you need and also benefits users who don’t have any other PDF viewer installed on their device.
The new storage permissions provides 2 options to access files:
- Full access (to all files)
- Media read-only access (to photos and videos)
This is an important feature for enabling secure file sharing on your device and gives you the opportunity to allow less access.
Now with your Android phone, you can also upload documents by scanning them. Under the “Add to Nextcloud” area, select “Scan document from camera” and you will be able to upload items quickly and easily.
