With the latest Nextcloud update and the iOS app released this week we are excited to announce today’s release of Nextcloud Android Client version 1.1.0 on the Google Play Store and f-droid (not live as of this writing, coming soon). This new version introduces two new, major features: Deeper integration into Android and a more comfortable way to switch between accounts. Besides that, there are smaller features like “select all” files during upload and optional creation of year/month based folders for the instant uploading of your beloved photos. Last but not least the new version also ships various bug fixes for minor issues like managing space via Androids app settings, rare crashes when switching between list and grid view,…
But enough for the management summary, let’s jump into the details of some of the new things this release is offering.
We wrote a complete new implementation for the action bar, its drawer and the account management. So the menu is now the typical left, top main menu you might be used to from other Material Design apps.
The new drawer comes with a new menu which marks the active item. Whenever you check for your upload queue or browse your files the menu will always reflect the context. Besides that you might have already spotted the difference in the header design. This is where the new account handling comes into play.
The accounts handling was formerly done via the app’s settings which also allowed you to switch between users. It has now been moved to a more central and intuitive position: the drawer menu. So starting with this version of the app, you will be able to switch between accounts via the menu. You also have easy access to the account manager and don’t have to go to the apps settings anymore.
The header offers a very quick way to switch between configured accounts by simply clicking on the avatars (which are new to the app too) on the top right. Furthermore it now shows the user’s full name, the user name and the server address.
Besides the accounts switching you can also directly access the new account managers letting you change the login data or simply remove an account.
We added a document provider implementation to give you easier access to your Nextcloud hosted files on Android KitKat (version 4.4) or newer. The document provider basically plugs into the standard documents view of Android. Any app that supports opening document via this standard Android mechanism like some PDF readers can now directly open your files. So no need to actually open the Nextcloud app anymore to view a PDF, just open your viewer, select your Nextcloud account, choose your file and your done. For now we only support read access but plan to also add write capabilities in the future so you can edit your files in app of your choice and the app will take care of it.
This is a rather small change you asked for and we are happy to bring it you. The uploader view now has an option to select all files within the current folder.
You can download the new version via Google Play Store and f-droid and get these features and enhancements today. You can also
