Rich workspaces
The latest Nextcloud server release, introduces rich workspaces, which are available also on the Android client. This is a new feature that allows you to embed text above a folder view. You can describe what that folder is about, what kind of files it contains, the nature of the files on that folder or anything that is useful for the other users to know.
Note: This feature is available for servers that are running Nextcloud 18 (or newer).
Clickable links on markdown previews
This improvement makes it possible to click links even on a downloaded markdown file when you access it locally on your mobile, enabling full access the content of your files!
Collaborative text editor
Edit text files on you mobile
Create new text files on your mobile
Markdown files are an easy way of taking meeting notes with your colleagues, drafting a new proposal during a team call, writing down some quick ideas or thoughts etc. After structuring the text with basic formatting in a human readable way you usually have to get back to it, maybe on the go, edit it again on your mobile and have full access on the content of that file. Maybe you need to share it with other people that will access it on their mobile. Or you might even need to create a complete new text file quickly using your mobile client.
Create new text document
Edit text document
Many syntax highlighting for markdown preview, in read mode only, became supported on the Nextcloud Android client 3.9.0.
With the new updates brought in this release you will be able to create new text files on your mobile and edit text on new or existing text files.
Collaboration on the go gets easier every time! Note: This featuress are available for servers that are running Nextcloud 18 (or newer).
Simplified view for auto-upload items
Nextcloud 3.10.0 for Android brings improved view of auto-upload items, based on your own preferences! When auto-uploaded folders and files are too many they can create a visual mess sometimes, depending on your auto upload settings. Now, it’s up to you to choose how you want them to be displayed!
You can choose whether to show or hide auto-upload folders:
If you have all the folders hidden you get an action button that allows you to show all hidden folders, and displays the number of hidden auto-upload folders
If you have all you your auto-upload folders visible, you get the option to hide the folders you don’t want to be displayed
If you have some auto-upload files hidden and some others visible, on the bottom of the page you get the number of hidden auto-upload files
Show hidden folders

Dark mode
Dark mode
The dark theme becomes available in the Nextcloud Android client 3.10.0!
Enabling the dark mode while using your devices enhances visual ergonomics and reduces eye strain. It adjusts the screen colours according to current light conditions, providing more comfort at night or in dark environments.
A big thanks goes to our community members @AndyScherzinger and @dan0xii for bringing the dark theme to this release.
More
Of course many fixes, refinements and features are being made regularly and older versions of Nextcloud are not supported. If you run an outdated, unsupported Nextcloud, the Android app will warn you of the risks. Nextcloud 13 is the oldest release that will work with this version of our app and you will get a warning if you are still running Nextcloud 15 or older. We strongly recommend private users to upgrade their Nextcloud servers.
As companies sometimes have to use older versions, Nextcloud offers long term support. Contact our sales team for more information on this.
Thank you community!
