Instead of Resilio Sync, I would suggest that people take a look at Syncthing. They have similar features but Syncthing is open source.

- QasimK 9y agoThere is no iOS app for Syncthing as far as I can tell
- okanesen 9y agoYou can use fsync() [0] for that. [0]: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/fsync/id964427882?mt=8 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/fsync/id964427882?mt=8
- QasimK 9y agoThank you! So as it is available on iOS, I need to adjust my comment to reflect what I mean. There isn’t a free, open-source, community-driven implementation for iOS, keeping with the nature of the project.
- unhammer 9y agoThey're crowdfunding one: https://www.bountysource.com/issues/7699463-native-ios-port-gui https://www.bountysource.com/issues/7699463-native-ios-port-... (There's also a closed-source iOS app called fsync(), but I found it too slow/unstable to use.)
- QasimK 9y agoThat’s great to know, and I can see there has been quite a bit of discussion the topic. I’m glad I’m not the only one that was missing an open implementation for iOS.
- mtgx 9y agoI haven't tried Synthing in about a year, but to me Resilio and Syncthing look like they are from completely different classes of apps/they target different markets. Syncthing is simply not designed for the mainstream. Resilio is. If Syncthing devs can fix that, I'll gladly start using it over Resilio with my non-technical friends.
- JetSpiegel 9y agoHow do you fix "not being mainstream"? What exactly is your issue with Syncthing?
