The latest #Nextcloud Android Update 3.30.1 via #FDroid has a nasty #bug: it syncs all files from server to mobile device without asking. This fills the local storage and eats lots of mobile data.

https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/13738

What can you do?

1. If not updated yet, disable auto updates on F-Droid and don't update until fix bot released

2. If updated, disable the Nextcloud app and wait for a fix

3. Delete synced files at "Device - Android - media - com.nextcloud.client - nextcloud - account - sync"

@rain You can also remove permissions to use mobile data for the app as long as it's not updated.

I wonder, how much this bug cost users. I had to buy another 3 GB for 15€... 😞

@kaffeeringe @rain

It took some 15 GB in 30 minutes for me. Thankfully no more traveling in October.
