LibreSync 0.5.0 syncs the moment something changes on your LibrePortal, tells you when files couldn't sync, and can keep your phone's music tidy.
Instant sync
- When a shared folder changes on your LibrePortal (a music app adds songs, or someone uploads), your phone syncs that folder within seconds instead of waiting for its next check.
- It uses ntfy, the app that already brings your server's notifications for chat apps. If ntfy isn't on your phone yet, LibreSync shows a short card: install ntfy and set its server to your LibrePortal's address.
- On unless you turn it off: Settings, When to sync, Instant sync. The chip says how it stands, like "Instant sync · on".
- Wi-Fi only and Only while charging still apply. While instant sync works, the regular check becomes a safety net every 6 hours, unless you chose your own.
- Needs LibrePortal 0.10.6 or newer. With an older one, nothing changes.
Notifications
- "3 files couldn't sync" when a sync ends with problems, once per problem. Tap it to see which files and why. It goes away when the folder comes right.
- Optional, and off unless you turn it on (Settings, Notifications, New files): a quiet note like "12 new songs on this phone".
Remove songs deleted on the server (optional)
- Turn it on per folder: a song deleted on the server goes from your phone too. "What we found" asks for new shared music and video folders (on for music). Existing folders stay as they were; each folder's details has the switch.
- Only files LibreSync itself brought to your phone, unchanged since. A file you changed here is kept ("Kept: changed on this phone"); files you made on the phone are never touched.
- A file goes only once it has been gone from the server for a while (an hour and two checks, or a day), so a server hiccup or a rename never removes anything. A renamed song arrives under its new name first.
- If many go at once, LibreSync asks first: "47 songs were removed on the server. Remove them here too?"
Nothing is ever deleted on your server.
