The biggest problem I have with syncthing is that it can't be used with iOS, and there are no plans to ever support iOS. I don't personally use iOS, but my wife does, so I can't get her phone to automatically sync pictures of our family with my phone and computers.
I suppose the people involved don't use the platform, and I realize iOS is more annoying to develop for than Android, but it's a pretty major downside and it's tempting me to use a cloud provider instead. I'd much rather just pay $15-$20 or something for an iOS app.
Maybe now with the 1.0 release it will be stable enough that a third party can step up and make an iOS app?
- keldaris 8y agoIf you can find other people who share your desire and present the developers with a clear case for making decent money that way, I'm sure either they or a third party would take up the challenge soon enough. Many of us who have no personal interest in the Apple ecosystem won't support it just because someone asks because of the effort and investment required - being meaningfully paid for it changes the equation.
