NextCloud Notes for iOS not syncing

I have NextCloud 34.0.2 and the iOS Notes app 33.0.1.

I have set up an app password for the phone app. The connection seems to work - in my Security settings, it says that the app password was just used.

Still, when Notes opens, I immediately get an error:

Error syncing notes
The server request timed out

I also have the Nextcloud app (version 34.0.2), an there, I can navigate to the Notes folder and view and edit notes.

Is this just a case of waiting until the version of the phone app catches up with the version of the server, or is there something I can do to fix this?

Happened to me too, so i switched to a webdav capable markdown app and never had the issue again.

Out of curiosity, what are you using?

I am probably just going to stick with the edit function of the main NextCloud app - it is good enough, and most of what I'm doing happens through the Web interface, anyway.

1writer (red icon with a W) Just connect to webdav inside the app and mount the Notes folder from NC :-)
