Ratings and reviews

Excellent! This app allowes me to sync any folder in my android device to my qsync folder in my qnap storage. I can now sync all my devices from pc, tablet, cellphone. The only 2 issues I find is being able to adjust sync frequency per folder (which is not a deal breaker) as well as max to a week interval. Also in settings not having max size of file set to unlimited in qsync file limit and qsync quota by default. I do know why this is done but most likely not a problem to veterans.

This is an improvement on the original version - it does synchronise a bit, whereas the original really was of no use. However I find it is not fully reliable at syncing large libraries, it only reliably synchronises smaller libraries. It struggles with my music library, this is on a Huawei P30 Pro, so plenty of CPU grunt and ram. The music library is just over 50Gb, it got there in the end, but afterwards it did not update changes such as moving files on the NAS, even after multiple re-sync's. As I said it is better than the previous Qsync, but there is still room for improvement. Basically it is quicker and easier to turn USB debug mode on, then plug your phone into your computer and manually sync things by the old fashioned method of copying.

Extremely bad experience like no one ever tested this app before pushing to production. When pairing a folder on Android it informs me that syncing consumes power (who could have guessed...). One can only click ok and one is presented the same screen again. Confirming the settings to complete the setup process give the same warning without a way out. Therefore setting up pairing is not possible anymore... The only this this app is supposed to do doesn't work.
