The team behind DAVx⁵ has grown once again! 😄
We're super happy that no less than @npub1phe…gkvj has joined us and will be working on DAVx⁵ in the future. Some might know him already because because he was the main developer on @npub1g5j…wfx7 / @npub1hxz…r8sj for Android in the past. 🎉
Once our main refactoring work is done we're focusing on some cool and very useful features again. Some of them we've had in mind (and were requested by users) for ages 😁 It will be a fantastic year for being a DAVx⁵ user!

This has nothing to do with Nextpush. It can be activated independently to push your contacts calendars and tasks to be received by DAVx5. Just install the davpush app on Nextcloud, then refresh calendars/ address books in DAvx5 and select the UnifiedPush provider you want in the DAVx5 settings at the bottom.

mhmm, https:// is used normally when the URL is written without http or https. If one needs http:// without the S then it must be written explicitly. And if https:// is in the URL it should already be handled correctly. did it appear twice like https://https:// ?

That's highly unusual. Even excessive syncing of multiple accounts should barely be noticable in the battery stats. which device and which network config? Maybe try to completely remove the app and reinstall.

On the server side there is a directory that stores contacts and calendars in vcard/ical format. This https://www.davx5.com/tested-with/ shows some examples. If the server is able to provide these data via the CalDAV and CardDAV protocol you can use our app to sync it down to your Android device.

We're absolutely thrilled to announce a new era of high-speed syncing for the open source ecosystem!
DAVx⁵ 4.5 will ship with full Push support (instant sync) for your Contacts, Events & Tasks!
We've worked on this for almost 3yrs from the first line of writing a draft for a (hopefully new) standard, to the work on a @npub1rk6…hv4q extension until the final DAVx5 implementation.

Do you know any OAuth servers/services out there offering CalDAV and CardDAV?

2025-06-02 12:48:42 UTC

While DAVx⁵ is a client-server sync tool we often get questions if there is a possibility to sync in server to server. We had a nice talk today with the creator @npub1tly…m0qm from pimsync who does work on a tool that does exactly that.
Check out the project here if you're interested:

2025-05-05 09:09:21 UTC

- reply

DAVx5 can grant you access to your files via WebDAV. These files can then be used as they were on the device. You can't sync files however like it works with CalDAVand CalrdDAV. You can manually manage files to up and download for example. You'll need a files app that supports SAF (Storage access framework) on your device so that it can see the mounted folder. There is a good overview in our manual.davx5.com :)

2025-04-22 12:44:21 UTC

We mean "swiping away" (not force kill in the app's settings). Why do you swipe it away? What is the reason for you doing it?

2025-04-22 12:21:58 UTC

Do you explicitly kill apps in general when switching away from it?

You can connect DAVx5 to your iCloud, too. Pull the data to the Android, then export it on the device, and import it back into the DAVx5 account that is connected with your home server.

Thanks for the info, sounds very promising. We will do further research when we update to UnifiedPush 3.x.

2025-02-20 19:17:26 UTC

- reply

Even better! Do multiple VAPID keys work with "instance" in UnifiedPush.register? Is there a limit of max VAPID keys? Do we need to renew the registration?
Sorry if these things are already covered by the docs. I haven't read everything in detail yet, but trying to get an overview.

2025-02-20 19:03:02 UTC

- reply

That's great news! We plan to implement this in DAVx⁵, too: https://github.com/bitfireAT/davx5-ose/issues/1321
Do I understand correctly that the approach for FCM w/o hosted gateway "only" works if there's only one VAPID key?
In case of multiple WebDAV-Push servers, they'd have different VAPID keys. In this case we could still provide a DAVx⁵ gateway or suggest another distributor, right?
But getting Push over FCM for the big fraction of users who only need Push for one account would absolutely be awesome!

2025-02-15 22:37:22 UTC

- reply

that is not possible yet since the internals of DAVx5 are spread between the system and davx5 and a lot can go wrong when importing data back. we are currently refactoring a lot of stuff and hope to provide better backup possibilities in the (not so far) future!

2025-02-15 20:25:29 UTC

- reply

for example put the manually created davx5:// URL into duckduck.go search field and add qr! behind it. It will display the QR for you which you can save or send somewhere else

2025-02-15 20:20:45 UTC

Did you know that you can easily (re-)setup DAVx5 via QR code by simply using this type of URL to automatically pre-fill the DAVx5 Login screen:
davx5://user@server.example.com/path/
You will need an appropriate QR code scan app like Binary Eye. Read more here: https://manual.davx5.com/integration.html#implicit-intent
Pro tip: save the QR code somewhere and whenever you want to re-setup simply scan it again ;-). Also great to help other not so tech savvy users by simply giving them a QR code!

2025-02-15 19:56:13 UTC

We are currently working hard on refactoring DAVx5 under the hood, so that we hopefully can provide some kind of backup functionality in the future.

Since Deutsche Telekom (t-online.de) discontinued their own Sync app for Android they are now recommending DAVx5, which is very cool :)

2025-01-18 14:55:15 UTC

- reply

Yes, currently this is not possible, since internally this is not just a few database entries that could be changed easily, but stored also in various places on a system level. You need to remove the account and redo the setup.

2025-01-13 16:18:06 UTC

- reply

Hi, currently this is not possible because it is a very complicated thing to implement. We would have done that already since it is often requested. The original user entered URL is only used during service detection, and the resulting "real" collection paths are saved inside DAVx5 but also with connections to the Android System. We are doing a lot of refactoring right now, which will make this a bit easier in the not too distant future.

in CalDAV/CardDAV so called collections are specialized "folders" that contain data of either events, task or journals (=calendars) or contacts (=address books)

2024-12-28 21:03:00 UTC

is that organizational contacts list a "personal" address book or one shared by somebody else? Thinking of: who's the technical owner of this address book?

2024-12-28 20:54:50 UTC

- reply

Normally this is not an issue. Sync workers should remain during the app updates and you are not needed to open the app to continue the background sync. Maybe a system problem... which Android you're using and did you allow DAVx⁵ to be unrestricted regarding battery usage?

2024-12-28 20:24:54 UTC

- reply

Does DAVx⁵ sync without errors on the CB? If yes most likely events are in the calendar storage of the CB (like they are on every Android device). They are never stored by DAVx5 itself.You can see a number of synced events in the debug info of DAVx5. If there are events > 0 then you'd need to find a calendar app that is accessing the calendar storage. Google Calendar has an option to display "third party non-Google" calendars (activate this in the settings of the Google Calendar app).

2024-12-28 20:04:41 UTC

After the initial DAVx⁵ setup is finished: should DAVx⁵ pre-select your collections for sync (for easier use and less interactions) or should users decide specifically?

This is a short tutorial video on how to receive events/tasks almost instantly from your @npub1rk6…hv4q on your Android device using DAVx⁵ and our new Push functionality.
1. You'll need to activate this Nextcloud app:
https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/dav_push
2. Install a @npub1j3k…7hwz provider on your Android, then select it in the DAVx5 settings.
3. Deactivate and reactivate a calendar resource in DAVx5 in the details view of a resource and wait 5 seconds. "Subscribed" should appear, and you're ready.
