Syncthing

This latest update is broken, my. devices immediately disconnect after a few seconds and won't finish syncing.

Spent far too much time setting this up on all devices and linking them for it not to sync. Resilio will at least function and with less trouble.

Fantastic, perfect for my needs. Works great on my kindle fire, and all other gadgets as well. Great work, thanks a lot

Open source, works seamlessly in the background, and cross-platform. Top marks, and great to see an innovative and secure tool for file syncing.

Best sync app there is

Very useful.

Yeah maybe it's not the easiest app to use, but for personal, bittorrent-like secure file sharing, this is the best thing running. Try the newly improved Windows client with it, maybe you'll fall in love with SyncThing like I have.

Best thing for personal file syncing ever. Open-source, distributed, and relatively easy to setup. Thanks, I have been waiting for something like this for such long...

Kinda useless if you can't use the external sd card. It's the only app I have that has that limitation. Resilio can do it too.

It works, but it's confusing; especially the interface. For example: sync progress 5432%. Whaaaat?

Somewhat confusing getting all my boxes sharing the right things with each other, but works well when that is done!

This app is very good at it's job.. On Android. The PC version seems slightly buggy but oh well. Syncing files is relatively easy now. Just be mindful to carefully organize or optimize your files for the devices you are using it on

I couldn't live without this app at this point. I use it to transfer music and photos to/from my phones. Easy to setup and stable.

Works extremely well if you take the time to set it up.

Best sync app

Just great

I would like to give it a 5 star rating because it really works, but I took 1 star off because it's not extremely simple to use, or very intuitive during setup (and when I say "setup" I mean also after it's installed and you are setting up folders to sync either on your device or on the remote device(s)). So with that said: It works and seems to be secure, but it may be for the more "techie" users, or users who are willing to put more than a couple of minutes into setting it up.

All of a sudden I am getting constant crashes. Not sure what changed.

I had a crash after initial install, but stable since then. UI is nice and works well for me. Thanks devs! Fantastic project.

Fantastic app, but the recent version crashes constantly... Can't even open it. I'll move this back to give stars when it starts working again.

I installed this to keep my music libraries in sync and it works very well. 26,000 files. Took a while and there were a couple of stalls or fcs but everything synced perfectly except for one file that was corrupt on the source library. Syncthing's log made the file easy to identify and fix. To be honest, the initial set up was a bit confusing but after 10 minutes of fiddling I got it all sorted out. Tried many other apps. None have good logging and all of them would report file counts out by 10 to 100 from the source count. Identifying errors was impossible. Syncthing has a few rough edges but it actually works. Resilio failed miserably. One complaint: startup can be quite lengthy; it would be good to have a status indicator to show it has not stalled or crashed. Oh, and I have multiple usb drives attached and it worked nicely with everything the os could see. Did not try a network share.

Whenever I start the app it shows a message saying that syncthing is disabled, takes me to a mostly greyed out menu with no way to get it running

Latest version constantly crashes. Normally a five star application.

After latest update it crashes all the time. Please fix ASAP.

developers fail to respond to emails, and when they do, it is usually rude

Must have! It synchronize my phone with NAS whenever I'm home! The best of the best!

Version 0.14.24 keeps crashing for me.

An insanely better alternative to all major cloud services.

Crashes more than 0.8.8

Yea, it works again on ipv6. It's been months. Happy.

Great, amazing app - hard to setup

simple yet powerful

Excellent app, does exactly what I wanted it to. I have tried more than a few other apps and ran into headache after headache getting most of them to even work in the first place (lots of buggy competitors out there). This app was a pretty quick setup on my laptop and three mobile devices and keeps them all in sync like a charm. I actually decided to write this review because I just exported a file from an app on my phone and it was on my laptop in less than 5 secs, with me doing nothing manual at all. Love it!

Switched to this app to avoid Resilio's closed source platform, but this just doesn't provide the essential features. The lack of external SD card support is seriously off-putting

How the app works is really good but why Syncthing is still unstable in root mode.? I just hope that in the future (not long enough) this feauture will be fixed. For sure Syncthing will be the best sync app.

Great sync app.

Excellent

Guys, your backend, P2P, crypto concept, open source approach is close to perfection. UX and UI from hell: Unresponsive, loads forever, no message what's going on. If you want tbis project to take off you gotta do sth about it. Mass Market doesn't honor a brill concept...

flexible- enables me to choose which folders to sync to which devices. private- doesn't send my files to the cloud. About once a month will have a bug, usually gets fixed in a day

Tested few synchronization software but only this one works for me to synchronize 7GB of WhatsApp data to my local server on a daily basis without exposing to the cloud. 1st time may take long time and drains the battery but subsequent synchronizations work flawlessly with good battery life. thanks for the effort made
