Download all files in iOS app

Tomero · April 30, 2023

Is there a way to get the iOS app to sync all the files without having to manually open them? Traveling without internet I really would like to be able to take my library with me and able to access it.

Not currently, but it's planned. You can, however, download all files in a given collection from the collection context menu.

I agree this would be a beneficial option. My iPad and iPhone both have plenty of space to sync my entire library. I would like that to be done automatically instead of waiting for me to open a file for it to download.

Yes, please. Same request.

It will be very helpful as pdf files normally don't take up too much storage space.

I have not found the feature at first but then figured out. “My library” -> then press and hold on “All items”, a menu will appear, click “Download attachments”.

If the download doesn’t work the first time, then go to “Settings” -> “Account” -> “Verify Server”. Then repeat the steps to download all files.
