Using the ownCloud Android App
|
||||
==============================
|
||||
|
||||
Accessing your files on your ownCloud server via the Web interface is easy and
|
||||
convenient, as you can use any Web browser on any operating system without
|
||||
installing special client software. However, the ownCloud Android app offers
|
||||
some advantages over the Web interface:
|
||||
|
||||
* A simplified interface that fits nicely on a tablet or smartphone
|
||||
* Automatic synchronization of your files
|
||||
* Instant uploads of photos or videos recorded on your Android device
|
||||
* Easily add files from your device to ownCloud
|
||||
* Two-factor authentication
|
||||
|
||||
Getting the ownCloud Android App
|
||||
--------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
One way to get your ownCloud Android app is to log into your ownCloud server
|
||||
from your Android device using a Web browser such as Chrome, Firefox, or
|
||||
Dolphin. The first time you log in to a new ownCloud account you'll see a screen
|
||||
with a download link to the ownCloud app in the `Google Play store
|
||||
<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.owncloud.android>`_.
|
||||
|
||||
.. figure:: images/android-first-screen.jpg
|
||||
|
||||
You will also find these links on your Personal page in the Web interface,
|
||||
|
||||
You can also get it from the `Amazon App store
|
||||
<http://www.amazon.com/ownCloud-Inc/dp/B00944PQMK/>`_, and get source code and
|
||||
more information from the `ownCloud download page
|
||||
<http://owncloud.org/install/#mobile>`_.
|
||||
|
||||
Connecting to Your ownCloud Server
|
||||
----------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The first time you run your ownCloud Android app it opens to a configuration
|
||||
screen. Enter your server URL, login name, password, and click the Connect
|
||||
button. (Click the eyeball to the right of your password to expose your
|
||||
password.)
|
||||
|
||||
.. figure:: images/android-new-account.png
|
||||
|
||||
For best security your ownCloud server should be SSL-enabled, so that you can
|
||||
connect via ``https``. The ownCloud app will test your connection as soon as
|
||||
you enter it and tell you if you entered it correctly. If your server has a
|
||||
self-signed SSL certificate you'll get a scary warning how it is not to be
|
||||
trusted. Click the OK button to accept the certificate and complete your account
|
||||
setup.
|
||||
|
||||
.. figure:: images/android-ssl-cert.png
|
||||
|
||||
Managing Files
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
Now you should see the Files page of your ownCloud account. Click the overflow
|
||||
button at the top right (that's the one with three vertical dots, and that is
|
||||
really what it is called) to open a user menu. ``Refresh account`` refreshes the
|
||||
page view. ``Settings`` take you to your settings menu. ``Sort`` gives you the
|
||||
option to sort your files by date, or alphabetically.
|
||||
|
||||
.. figure:: images/android-files-page.png
|
||||
|
||||
The little file folder icon to the left of the overflow button opens a dialog to
|
||||
create a new folder. The arrow button opens a file upload dialog, and you can
|
||||
either upload content from other Android apps such as Google Drive, the Gallery,
|
||||
your music player, or from your Android filesystem. When you add a new file
|
||||
you will see a confirmation on the top left when it has uploaded successfully,
|
||||
and it is immediately synchronized with the server.
|
||||
|
||||
.. figure:: images/android-upload.png
|
||||
|
||||
All files (that you have permission to access) on your ownCloud server are
|
||||
displayed in your Android app, but are not downloaded until you download them.
|
||||
Downloaded files are marked with a green arrow.
|
||||
|
||||
.. figure:: images/android-file-list.png
|
||||
|
||||
Download and preview a file with a short press on the filename. When the file
|
||||
is in preview mode, a short press on the overflow button opens a menu with
|
||||
options for sharing, opening with an app, removing, sending, and displaying file
|
||||
details.
|
||||
|
||||
.. figure:: images/android-file.png
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
A long press on the filename does not download it, but opens a dialog with
|
||||
options for sharing, downloading, renaming, moving, removing, sending, and
|
||||
viewing file details.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. figure:: images/android-file-options.png
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Settings
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
The Settings screen offers a number of useful options. In the Accounts
|
||||
section you can configure multiple ownCloud accounts.
|
||||
|
||||
The Security section sets up strong two-factor authentication by allowing you
|
||||
to add a PIN (personal identification number) to access your account.
|
||||
|
||||
The Instant Uploads section creates a directory, :file:`/InstantUpload`, and
|
||||
any photos or videos created with your Android device's camera are instantly
|
||||
uploaded to this directory. You also have the option to choose any other
|
||||
existing directory. Another nice option is Upload Pictures/Video via WiFi Only,
|
||||
to conserve your Internet data usage.
|
||||
|
||||
.. figure:: images/android-settings.png
|
||||
|
||||
The bottom section of the Settings screen has links to help and the
|
||||
app's version number.
