Synchthing on Android is End of life, alas https://forum.syncthing.net/t/discontinuing-syncthing-android/23002 https://forum.syncthing.net/t/discontinuing-synct

  Yes, very sad. Two alternatives exist: 1. Syncthing-Fork (https://github.com/Catfriend1/syncthing-android https://github.com/Catfriend1/syncthing-android) - Works just like the official app. Install from F-Droid or GitHub. Single developer but active. 2. Syncthing in Termux - Run the actual Syncthing program in Termux. Takes more setup but uses the standard version. The fork is easier to use, while Termux needs more setup but gives you the standard Syncthing experience.

    Are there any issues or tricks for syncthing in termux, for e.g. always running in the background?

      Termux persists for me via a silent notification—is that what you mean?

        Dows it auto start at boot?

          There's Termux:Boot for that.

    I have been using Syncthing fork since before the official app was discontinued, and can vouch for its quality. My favorite feature is that it allows conditional pausing of folders based on phone state, such as if the phone is charging or connected to WiFi. Just be warned that the version on Google Play was no longer updated last time I checked (Googles fault), so you're better downloading releases from the Github repo.

  I did not know that. Its a definitely problem for me.
