About Android
Syncthing-Fork is an open source Android wrapper for Syncthing, a file synchronization tool. It packages Syncthing for Android devices, and the project publishes builds through its releases page and through F-Droid. The project was forked from syncthing/syncthing-android, and its repository includes a wiki, a privacy policy document, and a contributing guide.
The source describes the app as a wrapper for Syncthing on Android only. It names instructions for switching from the deprecated official version of the app, but it does not describe the app's setup steps or the details of its sync behavior beyond that. The repository also lists third-party community projects that extend or depend on the app.
