About Tray Support
Syncthing Tray provides a tray icon and platform integration for Syncthing, focusing on GNU/Linux, Windows and Android. It complements Syncthing's normal web-based UI with status display, quick actions such as triggering a rescan, suspension on metered connections, and a launcher. Generic Linux builds require glibc>=2.26, OpenGL and libX11 and do not include the Plasma applet, Dolphin integration, or built-in web view. Windows downloads require Windows 10 version 1809 or newer, and Windows on ARM builds are largely untested.
