    DAVx⁵ by bitfire

    v4.5.12-ose

    DAVx⁵ ships a maintenance release with a Google Play workaround for WebDAV provider authority names, plus refreshed push settings, better sync and contact handling, improved compatibility, and broad dependency and build updates.

    See also the announcement on Mastodon!

    Note

    We unfortunately had to change the content provider name for the DAVx⁵ WebDAV provider because Google Play didn't allow us to upload updates with the old name anymore (probably because of a Google Play bug, they say they'll fix it at some time). As a consequence:

    If you use a DAVx⁵ WebDAV mount in another app (like Total Commander), the old mount in the other app will stop working and you'll have to add the mount again. No changes in DAVx⁵ needed.

    It seems that there are unexpected problems with Seedvault because it contains the hardcoded old authority name in an allow list. Please see the discussion thread and seedvault-app/seedvault#1014 for more information.
