Synchronize your phone with your WebDAV server, the easy way.
- Synchronize images, videos, audio and downloads
- Synchronize in both directions :
- Files touched on your phone will be uploaded / deleted on your server
- Files touched on your server will be uploaded / deleted on your phone
- Basic auth (login with password) or Digest auth
- Secure storage of your credentials
- Preserve timestamps if you use Nextcloud as DAV server
A free trial version (30 days) is also available here
- Images, video, screenshots
- If they are displayed in your gallery, they will be synchronized. This includes images and
videos in
DCIM/,Pictures/,Movies/andDownload/ - If they are only available in a specific app but not in gallery, they won't be synchronized
- Please note that messaging apps (messages, whatsapp, signal, etc.) generally offer you the choice between saving files in your gallery (in such case they will be synchronized) or not
- If they are displayed in your gallery, they will be synchronized. This includes images and
videos in
- Audio, music
- All audio files that are visible in
Alarms/,Audiobooks/,Music/,Notifications/,Podcasts/,Ringtones/andRecordings/will be synchronized - Beware that google's own voice recorder stores its files privately and offer its own cloud synchronization. They won't be synchronized by EasySync
- All audio files that are visible in
- Downloaded files
- All downloaded files in
Download/will be synchronized, whether they are pdf, epubs, documents, images, etc.
- All downloaded files in
Everything not explicitly stated above is not synchronized. More specifically:
- Applications
- Applications data/state
- Messages
- Contacts
- Games progress
- Wifi or network parameters
- Android settings and phone customization
All files are synced unless you explicitly exclude folders.
No, you can choose if you allow sync on cellular or only on wifi.
No, you can select a subfolder on your NAS that will be synced. For example if you own 2 devices in your family, you can have one folder per device so they are synced independantly.
When you configure EasySync you select a specific folder on your DAV server. This folder will be fully synced with your phone.
- If you want to access files on your DAV server that are outside that specific folder, then you still need nextcloud app.
- If you need per folder synchronization, then you still need nextcloud app.
- If you want to use all nextcloud features (such as sharing), then you still need nextcloud app.
- Otherwise it is probably not necessary.
- Please be sure to disable battery optimization permission (it will be shown on home screen if required). Disabling battery optimization will not drain your battery. It will just enable immediate sync of file changes.
- You may also enable
Sync on cellularand/orSync on batteryinSynchronization settings( available from home screen).
In order to preserve battery we cannot detect quickly DAV changes. If you need immediate sync use " Sync now" button on home screen.
You can add your own trusted certificate in android Settings > Encryption and Credentials
- From Android 8 to latest releases
- Huawei phones may kill the app in background, be warned. These tips will help you:
It should work with any DAV compliant server.

There are several reports of nextcloud DAV to be slow.
You can get drastic speedup (almost 10x) when using a device password instead of your user's password:
- Create a device password
- Go to DAV Settings in easysync, use your own login, but put the device password instead of your usual user password
- Enjoy 10x speedup

- Fix: handle permissions rejected that cannot be asked anymore (the permission activity doesn't start)
- Feature: check for low free space on dav or on device
- Optimization: when new remote files are locally added during FullSync, a FileSync is trigged which is useless. See if we can avoid this
- Create/update
app/src/main/res/values-xx/strings.xml - Create/update
fastlane/metadata/android/xx/full_description.txt - Create/update
fastlane/metadata/android/xx/short_description.txt
Replace xx with
your ISO 639-1 language code. E.g. en
for english, fr for french, etc.
For new languages:
- Add a new locale entry to
app/src/main/res/xml/locales_config.xml - Add a new locale entry to
app/build.gradleinresourceConfigurationskey
