Review summary

Users praise ownCloud Android for reliable performance and easy remote file access on the go, with several calling it faster and more straightforward than Nextcloud. The app is seen as consistently usable for daily tasks. Common improvements include adding an Android dark mode, improving parity with iOS UX, and reducing intrusive review prompts. Some mentions of occasional file-sending connectivity issues and a desire for broader auto-sync features exist, but overall the app is valued for stability and portability.

Pros

Reliable and consistently works as expected
Strong on-the-go access to remote files and syncing
Fast and smooth performance
Better than Nextcloud; preferred over Nextcloud by multiple users

Cons

Persistent review prompts that nag users to rate the app
Android lacks a dark mode; requests for a native dark theme

2026-04-15	el*****	there is a very annoying behaviour atm: when logging in the server from the browser, if one needs to move to the 2fa app to retrieve the codes, the app restarts from the " server input " screen. I managed just because I use the clipboard 📋 but it's quite slow and not really suitable for the average Android user ( if you want them to move out from GDrive)
