User Reviews

Users praise the app’s visual design and occasional basic functionality like photo viewing, but recurring issues dominate. The most mentioned problems are certificate and HTTPS handling (often with self-signed certs), lack of Android share integration, frequent crashes, empty file listings after login, and unreliable uploads/downloads with no progress indicators. In short, the app works only in limited setups and needs substantial stability and feature improvements before daily use.

Pros

  • Visually appealing UI
  • Basic photo viewing works
  • Some users report it works in certain configurations (e.g., local network/initial setup)

Cons

  • Certificate/HTTPS handling issues, including self-signed certs, blocking connections
  • No Android share target; cannot share from file manager to Pydio
  • Frequent crashes and instability
  • After login, folders/files often do not display (empty workspace)
  • Uploads/downloads unreliable; no progress bar or notifications; missing download URL

IT WORKS

by Ro*****

Looks nice, but actual functionality is either limited or buggy (or both). You can't share anything from the app, which means you have to download it first and then share from your phone's file manager. The "keep offline" feature just doesn't do anything. Essentially the only thing that works well is viewing photos.
