Option to only sync while charging #879

Open dubstar-04 opened 9 years ago

dubstar-04 commented 9 years ago

Would it be possible to add an option to only sync while charging or above a certain battery level?

tobiasKaminsky commented 9 years ago

Please see #745, this is about uploading when charging. Currently there is no real difference between uploading and syncing...

masensio commented 9 years ago

@dubstar-04 thanks for your idea. We will take it into account for future sync options.

davivel commented 8 years ago

There is a difference, and we need to take care of it. It's about the scope. We need to focus in improving syncing file contents, in a general sense, and including the different options that are both in-place and incoming for instant uploads.

We'll keep #745 open since there is a lot of good stuff there, but the way to go is really here.

Thanks @jesmrec forpointing me here. This would be incredible useful to me, would make match the behaviour that already exists with Google Photos, iDrive, etc

jesmrec commented 5 years ago

you are welcome. As you can check above, there is an open PR (https://github.com/owncloud/android/pull/745) with the fix, but it will need some review, update and QA.

@michaelstingl @pmaier1 from a product point of view, is this feature interesting? it would be scheduled in the medium term, anyway.

Yes noticed that although pending for 2 years doesn't bode well

I like the idea, but low priority. We first should make the app more stable and future-proof with https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/2351, then implement missing features like search… (https://github.com/owncloud/android/issues/695)

jonferreira commented 5 years ago

dang I was hopping this would be higher on the to-do list...

Honestly this and a "select all" button to upload files are the only 2 things I'm missing

shashvat-kedia commented 5 years ago

@jesmrec I would like to work on this.

I would like to work on this.

@sd1998 go for it!
