FAQ

Q: Why is my image/video not viewable right after uploading ("media not found" when trying to open)?

A: This is most likely due to the media scanner in Android; it might take some time before it picks up and processes the file and makes it available. You can refresh the file listing after a while, and try again. We will look into forcing a scan for certain file types immediately after upload to improve this.

Q: Why is the file size and checksum different between my original and uploaded video? The video seems to play correctly however.

A: Not 100% sure, but this could also be due to the media scanner processing and trying to optimize the file to save space. The same thing seems to happen for example when downloading certain videos from Google Drive to your device storage.

Q: I can't seem to be able to write to my SD card?

A: This issue was resolved in release 0.3.0, please update. Additionally, if you want access to a secondary storage, please select it first from the main menu under Select Storage. This will give the app read/write permission for the storage, after which you can manage files there normally. The permission is persisted, so it needs to be done only once per storage. Furthermore, subdirectories don't need to be selected, the permission includes those automatically.

Q: Can I upload multiple files at once?

A: Yes, the browser's file chooser is configured to support multiple selections. For example on a Mac, just hold down the shift key to select multiple files.

Q: Can I download multiple files at once?

A: Yes, but with a slight workaround. You can select multiple files on your device, create an archive, and then download the archive.

Q: I seem to be having problems uploading files using device X and browser Y?

A: The upload feature was designed to be used from a desktop browser, and has been tested with late versions of Chrome, Safari and Firefox. It is standard HTTP, CSS and JavaScript, so it should work on any modern browser. Please note that an internet connection is required to load stylesheets and javascript though. Additionally, in some special environments, the file selection or HTTP PUT method may not be supported.
