I totally agree that there shpuld be information about total upload progress. I also realized, that nextcloud has huge timeouts/brraks between uploading the next file.
I like the actual behaviour: it maker much more simple to detect connection problems, expecially if I am uploading several files at once. Yet having the overall percentage would be an useful addition
@Spartachetto I would suggest a separate notification appear should an error occur, though I do not feel trying to debug this on the Android phone would be preferred. An error message should be sent to log for the user and admin(s).
There are/were several discussions regarding notifications in general and upload notifications in particular.
Personally I like the idea to enhance the notifications, while in contrast there are also ideas to remove them completely. Therefore I am really unsure how to proceed here.
Notifications have been discussed for quite a while now, yes. I agree with this issue and to some extend with the proposed solution. I'd also say this is definitely an enhancement of today's solution for a simple reason: There is no advantage of a single Notification per file. So to sum up from what I understood and think would be a good way to go is:
Looking at the Amazon drive upload notification I do like their approach since it shows you an overall progress
This way you know the actual status and can also anticipate how long it might take to finish. The preview image on the left is also nice while I'd say that would be another increment.
@AndyScherzinger though i do not think that this would be a big issue I do recommend switching from MB to GB once GB is reached. though I cannot possibly think of someone uploading anything this large from their phone.

of course that would be the case then, also happening for KB, GB, PB, etc. like we do in other places already :)
as agreed with @jancborchardt and @Shagequi
Are there any news for the implementation of this feature? :) A progress bar would be a nice improvement for the Nextcloud app.
The team is working on this feature 🎉: https://github.com/nextcloud/android/pull/12907 https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/12256
@alperozturk96 considering https://github.com/nextcloud/android/pull/12907 has been merged, solving https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/12256 – can this be closed too?

Currently when you are uploading multiple files the status is for individual file itself, this is somewhat confusing because it does not show any information about the total files still awaiting upload:

Dropbox Android application works in a different way showing the status of the total remaining:

If a file errors out during upload a second notification should open showing the details of which one.
