We are happy to announce that DAVx5 4.3.15 is now available (also on #fdroid @fdroidorg).

* Great parts have been rewritten to Compose and (will be finalized in 4.3.16)
* We've changed how we use various sync types, resulting in much less used system sync quota. This means a much more reliable scheduled background sync. Hope you enjoy the new version! 😀

Actually I had (background)-synchronization issues since a long time. I think it is mainly related to the OS (ShiftOS) which is still based on Android 10 (also other accounts fail to sync in the background). I think there used to be an option in DAVx5 to force a foreground service or something like this. Enabling this option made synchronization reliable. I think this option was removed a few versions ago or I don't find it anymore. Now synchronization is bad again.

@DanielPielmeier We had to remove that option since it was bound to a permission which Google decided we are not eligible to use anymore and it blocked releasing new versions. We will release a small widget that could help to keep the app in foreground in the next version. Hopefully it helps.

I see! Thanks for letting me know. 👍
BTW. Is it this commit?

For this device Android 13 is about to be released. Do you think this might improve things without the need of a foreground service?

Thanks for the great app!

I'm using it to sync my NextCloud contacts to my phone, is there a way to sync those NextCloud contacts to a Google workspace account? Not seeing anything obvious of there is..
