Syncthing has been updated to 1.16.1. It has a new feature to encrypt stored data. I have successfully used this feature to encrypt my data stored on my Yunohost server. The docs are here: https://docs.syncthing.net/users/untrusted.html

The caveat to using encrypted storage is that all the devices involved must have 1.16.1. However, this version is now ubiquitous as my devices include Android, Windows as well as Linux.

Dear Syncthing users,

If you have an Android phone and have installed Syncthing from F-Droid, note that the app called “Syncthing” is no longer maintained.

You can export your current configuration from that app, uninstall it, install the “Syncthing-Fork” one, then restore the configuration for a seamless transition to a maintained app.

From GitHub repo… easy peasy

  • On Syncthing on the official app, go into the settings and create a backup.
  • Confirm you can see that backup in your files.
  • Now stop the official app entirely using the system app settings for Syncthing (force stop the app basically - we need to ensure it’s not running).
  • Now start Syncthing-Fork.
  • In the Syncthing-Fork settings, restore the backup you created earlier.
    Like magic, everything should be as it was in Syncthing official.
    Confirm everything looks good.
    Uninstall the official Syncthing app.
    Delete the syncthing configuration backup from backups/syncthing.
