What's the latest story on Android? Last I heard they stopped official support there due to the newer restrictions Google has been imposing.


At the time they retired the Official Android App, there was already a much more popular and better maintained fork: https://github.com/Catfriend1/syncthing-android

AFAIK, it's only available on F-Droid/Github/Obtainium


It’s available on Play Store, but a different dev handles distribution there:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.github.cat...


Syncthing-fork is in the Play Store and works fine for me.


More info about the release situation:

Play Store build:

Yeah, no longer being able to gain permission to access your directory hierarchy feels like it'd be a major roadblock on that platform?
