Syncthing Android app discontinued (forum.syncthing.net)

Announcement by the creator: https://forum.syncthing.net/t/discontinuing-syncthing-android/23002

Unfortunately I don’t have good news on the state of the android app: I am retiring it. The last release on Github and F-Droid will happen with the December 2024 Syncthing version.

Reason is a combination of Google making Play publishing something between hard and impossible and no active maintenance. The app saw no significant development for a long time and without Play releases I do no longer see enough benefit and/or have enough motivation to keep up the ongoing maintenance an app requires even without doing much, if any, changes.

Thanks a lot to everyone who ever contributed to this app!

Just got into using Syncthing for my home network, was thinking I should add it to my phone. Makes sense it dies the instant I consider it

I'm a fucking albatross, I know... Or whatever that sailor's curse bird is I forget. A crested wank.

Lol, I was also looking at installing it last weekend.

I guess this thing is on the same connection as my stock choices.

My advice is to be less like me

It seems to be working for other people

Consider yourself lucky, I feel the pain of seeing the end of years of a loving relationship.
