After the whole Syncthing-Fork debacle, I've been considering what to do, and I discovered that Syncthing Tray has experimental Android builds. I've noticed the UI is kind of buggy (not really a surprise since they're experimental builds), so I was wondering if anyone has actually used it and could provide a comparison with Syncthing-Fork. I'm especially interested regarding battery life and so on given that that was the main benefit of Syncthing-Fork over the original app anyway before the original app got discontinued, and obviously I'd like to know if it syncs well or if there are any weird issues.

The main repo changed hands a few times to new accounts that were very new.
