On some MIUI devices the file picker does not return a file which results in no file being loaded into the vault

This topic is for users which

  • have an MIUI operating system together with Cryptomator for Android
  • can’t upload files to Cryptomator or send a bug report including the log file

There is a bug in the default MIUI files app on some devices which leads to selecting a file using the file picker but the selection doesn’t return a file which prevents Cryptomator to upload files or sending the log file.

!!! Before enabling, please make sure you understand the consequences of this option !!!

To workaround this problem:

  1. Enable Developer Mode
  2. Enable “MIUI optimization”
