Summary
Add folder sync option for Android (background sync to/from vault) as a substitute for live drive.
Motivation
This is for everyone wanting to work seemlessly with files. I know it's a massive request but currently it's amazing it has been made, now to get access to files
People can secure there devices so working with a local folder seems like the workaround to a live drive.
On Windows, Cryptomator works seamlessly because it mounts the vault as a live drive, allowing any app to read/write files directly.
On Android, this is not possible due to OS restrictions. Working inside the vault is limited—working with the files is not fluent.
Request: Add a folder sync feature for Android that allows a selected local folder to be automatically synced with a folder inside an unlocked vault.
Proposed behavior:
- User selects a local folder (e.g., /Documents/text-library) and a target vault folder.
- When the vault is unlocked, Cryptomator syncs changes in both directions.
- Configurable sync interval (e.g., every 5 minutes, hourly, or manually triggered).
- Set to run in the background as standard.
Why this helps:
For example, when working with texts and photos, I cannot work with, access, or search files in a fluent way. This feature would solve that. I can not work with libraries of files.
