Synchronizing folders and files


Please note!

Once the installation of the FAUbox mobile App is completed, a base folder called “FAUbox” will be created (to be found in Files). Whenever you open a file in the app, the file will also appear in the base folder and will be included in the synchronization. Furthermore, if you edit the file in this base folder, the changes will also be visible on the app and therefore also on every other client you are using. If you want to edit files in the FAUbox via the mobile app, you have to do so by editing them in the FAUbox base folder! You cannot do so by editing them directly on the mobile app (since this would only create copies of the edited files, which can then be downloaded on your device. However, you cannot change the files themselves).

The synchronization of your files and folders will start automatically but you can accelerate the process, if wanted. In order to do so:

1. Click on extension function in the top right corner.
2. Click on Sync now to start the synchronization of your folder and files.
