Hey gang, do you have any suggestions for moving data from my phone to my jellyfin server? I tried using the daemon tools on F-Droid and could not for the life of me figure them out.

    Does it have to be SFTP?

    I use both Syncthing and Resiliosync - both are better on battery than conventional file transfer mechanisms, and they don’t require babysitting. They simply sync files as you define.

    Alternatively if you must have FTP/SFTP, I have used FolderSync (Play store or Apk Mirror) since about 2010 - I’ve even bought it twice because it’s such a great app. Though I haven’t upgraded in a while because I don’t like the new UI.

    The free version does pretty much everything the paid version does, and the devs have always been great.

    But I’d use Syncthing, you can even set it to only sync on your wifi and while xhaeging, though I’ve found even syncing a few gigs doesn’t impact my battery (I probably sync 10GB a day while on battery).
