## Description

**Floccus Companion** is a mobile app that brings your Floccus-synced bookmarks to your phone or tablet. View, organize, and share bookmarks without a web browser. The app supports multiple backends (Nextcloud, Linkwarden, KaraKeep, WebDAV, Git, Google Drive), offers offline access, and emphasizes full privacy — your data stays on the server you choose. It also supports sharing and collaboration via public links or group sharing where supported, and is open-source with code available on GitHub.

Designed for seamless cross-device bookmark continuity, Floccus Companion helps you tag, folder-organize, and search bookmarks on the go while keeping control over your data. Maintained by a community-driven project with a voluntary subscription model, it extends the Floccus browser extension to mobile. To get started: install the Floccus browser extension, download the Floccus Companion from Google Play, sign in with your backend, and start browsing your synced bookmarks instantly.

## Review summary

Users appreciate Floccus Bookmark Sync for its reliable cross-platform bookmark syncing, especially with Nextcloud and GIT, and value its open-source nature and privacy focus. However, many note the dated user interface, syncing issues causing app or browser freezes, and challenges with bookmark import/export on mobile browsers. Additional features like improved folder management and better support for HTTPS Git repositories are desired. Overall, while effective for desktop and supporting browsers, mobile syncing and UI could be improved.

### Pros

- Supports syncing with Nextcloud and GIT repositories.
- Open-source and respects user privacy with no trackers or unnecessary data transmission.
- Highly appreciated by users who need cross-platform bookmark management.
- Useful for syncing bookmarks between desktop and mobile browsers.

### Cons

- User interface is outdated and needs modernization.
- Issues with syncing leading to freezing or hanging of browsers and app.
- Limited support for mobile browsers' bookmark import/export functionalities, making true sync challenging on mobile.
- No support for HTTPS Git repositories and inability to delete repositories was mentioned.
- Lack of folder management features such as creating new folders during sharing and inability to move folders easily.
