Desktop App

Usage

The core features of the desktop app are explained in detail here.

Sync connection

The desktop app can keep a folder on your local computer in sync with a folder in your cloud storage. We call this a sync connection. You can add as many sync connections as you like.

Remote folder

You can select which remote folder to sync. Thus, you don't have to download all data on each device.

File selection

Flexible filters rules allow you to only sync what you want and ignore the rest. You can configure what files to sync for each sync connection independently.

For example, you could sync your home directory but exclude all files in the "Downloads" directory with

+**,-Downloads/**

Paths are separated by commas. A leading '+' means it's an include rule, '-' makes it an exclude rule. The rules are evaluated from left to right. A file will only be synced, if there is at least one matching include rule and no matching exclude rule afterwards.

The default rule is +**,-.**,-**/.** which means all files except hidden files will be synced.
