Where is files mount and how do I connect
Doesn't work with privateemail
Doesn't work. Won't install on my phone, tried all suggestions of restarting, clearing cache, plenty of storage available, latest android 16 update. No suggestion works. All other apps install fine.
added my calendar to this app and synched. and I see nothing. waste of money
App refuses to install on S22.
Doesn't work with the new outlook. Won't even refund, STAY AWAY!!
Doesn't work with fastmail
Completely pointless, syncs one way only
Suddenly i lost all of my contacts. I have my accounts but all of them are empty. Thx davx.... Worthless.... Dont waste your money and your time....
Switching to a new phone I was asked to pay again for the app!?! I asked the support for help but didn't get any answer to my email.
I lost the original (free) version of this app (davdroid) after a reset. The free version worked fine but I cannot get this to connect with my SOGo server. Disappointing
Releases on F-Droid are lagging behind badly, forcing you to deal with update notifications on Playstore
No refunds. No exceptions! Would not work with my client, and automatic samsung sync becomes inoperable. Don't buy!
It did not work for me. Told me to authenticate with my email address and not user name. Did not work.
Next time you upgrade the app; don't include a nag splash that causes all syncs to fail. I need the app to keeep functioning across upgrades without my intervention.
this app lacks clear user interaction. ich sehe kein sync Progress, keine Ahnung was Davx5 genau macht. Sollte ich al zwei minute auf sync klicken? werden die tasks überhaupt synchronisiert? gibt es ein Statusanzeige? Sehe ich irgendwie das DAVX5 etwas macht?
Very flaky and unstable, doesn't work with radicale very well. I would refund if I could, as it continuously spams me with auth issues, yet when I go to the app and sync manually, it all works fine. I can't really trust it does its job correctly. Waste of money and time.
Just couldn't get it to work, so used another option.
hello, is that it then? From perfect to impossible to repair in one sad morning? The app broke and it seems no reset proc will have it working again. Support tickets unanswered, forum discussion buried. Do I really need to look elsewhere?
I have wanted to use this app for _years_ but I couldn't because I didn't know it supported client certificates. I use nextcloud and what I've always been doing when I wanted to test this app is select nextcloud because I expected this app to prompt for a certificate when the server asked for one, but nooooo that would be user friendly we can't have that. Please detect if you are being challenged for a client certificate in the TLS handshake and ask the user to select one.
