User Reviews

Summary: User reviews show that DS Cloud can offer fast NAS-focused syncing and quick file viewing on iPhone, sometimes outperforming OneDrive for file access. However, many users report the app as neglected and unstable, with frequent launch crashes (including Face ID), no background sync, cumbersome password changes, and a very long or non-resumable initial sync.

Pros

Fast syncing for a shared NAS folder.
Faster file viewing/opening on iPhone than OneDrive.
Enables syncing between iPhone and Synology NAS for a share (NAS-based access).

Cons

No recent updates; several reviews note it hasn't been updated for years.
Frequent crashes on startup and when using Face ID.
Does not support background syncing; not listed as a background app in iOS.
Changing password requires unlinking and re-syncing; no in-app password change.
Initial sync is very lengthy and cannot always resume once interrupted.

So I’ve been using Synology DS-111 since well 2011 and while it was fantastic the last round of updates several years ago made it super duper slow (maybe on purpose by synology). Anyways it still works but sadly with latest ios18 and iPhone DSCloud is super moody. Takes forever to connect and sync a few kB of data. This model doesn’t support DS Drive which makes little sense given it’s likely all customized rsync like algo running behind the scenes with some kind of git server for versioning (or svn or mercurial or whatever custom they made). While it mostly works, at times it can be frustrating given you have to wait 10-40m or forever for it to sync despite being connected. They should give it some love or port the drive over and make it work
