Did you know you can use the Outlook app for Android with DAVx5 synced calendars? You can! - that's something we didn't know for ourselves actually - and people asked us about this for a lot of times :D

We've written a guide so that everyone can use it - if they prefer that app (although Outlook is not open source of course):

@buchling @d4m13n How should it access the credentials that are stored in DAVx5?

@buchling @d4m13n Fair enough

Thanks to the people recommending @davx5app for my Android CalDAV sync woes. It works perfectly. Now I just need to find a way.to disable (and not just hide) the Google calendar in the calendar app 🤔

davx5app,
@davx5app@fosstodon.org avatar

@dancingtreefrog @rene it should, since I read that you can use radicale on the FBX which takes care of the CalDAV and CardDAV connection for your Contacts and Calendars.

@davx5app My calendar events don't show attachments. I read the manual1, but I'm not entirely sure I understand correctly. Is it impossible to view attachments to events?

davx5app,
@davx5app@fosstodon.org avatar

@whynothugo Hi Hugo, nice to read you :) yes that is unfortunately true. Attachment sync is not supported yet (it is a complicated thing...). This will however probably be our next bigger feature thing after Push.

Let's draw back time and look at DAVx5 when it had a different name. And looked a little different as well😜

This is DAVdroid 1.0 recorded on an Android 7 device (more than 8 years ago).

We've released ICSx5 2.2!

It has been completely rewritten to Compose, which took quite some time alone. We fixed various bugs and improved on a lot of areas in general under the surface! We've also added a few new options to your syncing pleasure :D

We hope you like it!

@yrlf We'll see if this can be fixed easily

Need help: Received notice to take down @watomatic app from the play store. What can I do to fight this? I am the developer of this. Reboosts appreciated. Thank you all ❤️

davx5app,
@davx5app@fosstodon.org avatar

@dsoft @watomatic Speaking from our own history: we had to change our name from DAVdroid to DAVx5: You've almost zero chance. The first thing you would need is a lawyer and send them the official response and your sights. But at the end you will always be the weaker party (=less money). They will argue that you're free riding, using Whatsapp to make your own "business" ("your app wouldn't exist if there was no Whatsapp"). IMO u can only survive by removing any WA reference from text and images..

Anyone using Google Login with davx5-ose (F-Droid/Github)?

Google changes their policy in June 2024 and will probably disable the API key when we don't mark it as "wait for abuse" (marking is cumbersome, and they may disable the key nevertheless).

Please see / also post at https://github.com/bitfireAT/davx5-ose/issues/664

@davx5app@fosstodon.org avatar

We are happy to announce that DAVx5 4.3.15 is now available (also on @fdroidorg).

  • Great parts have been rewritten to Compose and (will be finalized in 4.3.16)
  • We've changed how we use various sync types, resulting in much less used system sync quota. This means a much more reliable scheduled background sync. Hope you enjoy the new version! 😀

@DanielPielmeier @fdroidorg We had to remove that option since it was bound to a permission which Google decided we are not eligible to use anymore and it blocked releasing new versions. We will release a small widget that could help to keep the app in foreground in the next version. Hopefully it helps.

@tcit it seems so 😅 it was never meant to be a real ad... just for a basic idea what people like most. It can also be a help for real designers to see which direction would be cool 😎

How shall DAVx⁵ deal with local changes on read-only calendars?

https://github.com/bitfireAT/davx5-ose/discussions/601

davx5app,
@davx5app@fosstodon.org avatar

@joel Well for some users it seems to be useful to locally add a reminder of an event in a shared (read-only) calendar. I guess this is why some calendar apps allow it, and it seems to be used by users, otherwise we wouldn't have got error reports and this discussion wouldn't exist

davx5app,
@davx5app@fosstodon.org avatar

@joel I have also updated the original posting in the Github discussion to clarify that this is not about whether we want to allow changes in read-only calendars, but how to deal with the changes that calendar apps perform (regardless of whether we want it or not) in read-only calendars

davx5app,
@davx5app@fosstodon.org avatar

@tina Some calendar apps allow for instance to add a reminder (which changes the local event), whether we want it or not. The question is how DAVx⁵ shall deal with it.

@davx5app I am having trouble updating DAVx5 to version 4.3.13.1-gplay using the Google Play Store. Are you aware of any known issues?

davx5app,
@davx5app@fosstodon.org avatar

@mschuster Probably https://github.com/bitfireAT/davx5-ose/discussions/10#discussioncomment-8556143 ?

For Google Play only there are no known problems.

Can you recommend me a good open (can be payed) app for ?
I synchronize tasks and calendars from using .
I successfully replaced GTasks with Tasks.org app, GKeep with NextCloud Notes but still looking for a good calendar app.

@healthiswealth @foxy @stepan Using ICSx5 would be better. Implementing this will still take a while

Thunderbird could get support for VJOURNAL on the Desktop! Pleeeeease retoot and vote for it!!!1!11!111 :)

https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/support-vjournal-in-thunderbird/idi-p/46295

It would greatly improve the open *DAV ecosystem in general. And it would make it possible to sync not just Tasks but
also Notes and Journals across all your devices with DAVx5 (already supports VJOURNAL sync) and @jtx jtx Board.
