Syncthing on Ubuntu Touch

Dear all,

I was wondering if syncthing is already ported to Ubuntu Touch or if someone is working on it.

Otherwise, I would love to support, even though I have little experience in development (but for learning at the same time).

Best regards and thanks for this beautiful piece of code! Pierre

One of the earliest versions ran unmodified on it, and I would expect the current versions to do so as well. It’s probably not a particularly native experience though and you’ll have all the usual battery consumption problems that plague the Android port.

@vmalep, yes it works perfectly on Ubuntu Touch - I just wrote a quick tutorial for installing it if you’re interested.

I’d say, yes it definitely would affect the battery life somewhat, but in my opinion it’s worth it. :wink:
