PSA: Nextcloud WebDAV access from Cryptomator iOS app

I had difficulty configuring my Nextcloud instance using WebDAV through the iOS app.

Many of the recommended Nextcloud URL schemes for DAV/WebDAV did not work with the Cryptomator iOS app.

This one did:

https://{host}/remote.php/webdav

This list should likely be updated: WebDAV URLs of Common Cloud Storage Services

Can anyone confirm this? Which version of Nextcloud are you using? The latest Nextcloud documentation on version 17 still states the URL scheme that we have listed: https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/17/user_manual/files/access_webdav.html

But maybe the documentation is outdated or maybe you are actually using ownCloud? Because that fits the URL scheme that works for you.

Hi @tobihagemann – I am using NextCloudPi 1.20.1 and Nextcloud 17.0.2.1. I believe this is the latest version.

Before arriving at the URL scheme noted above, I was getting the same error described in this post regarding WebDAV and Owncloud: iOS app, ownCloud 10.3.1 - http method "OPTIONS" not allowed

Changing the URL scheme resolved that same error for Nextcloud and Cryptomator iOS.

Here is a screenshot. I’m not confused about which software I’m using :wink:

New users can only add one image. Here is the second.

All right, thank you for providing more details. I’ve updated the list to include both possibilities for now since I couldn’t find any further information or documentation on this.

Didn’t want to sound too skeptical, I was just wondering why no one else has reported this by now. :thinking: Thank you again for reporting this!
