Description
Describe the bug
Nextcloud cardav is my only server for contacts, I interact with it via 3 clients :
- iPhone contact app
- mac contact app
- webUI from nextcloud
Sync between iPhone and mac through the nextcloud server works perfectly.
However, if I open contacts from the nextcloud webUI, some info that is present on apple devices is not shown.
If I download the contact from the webUI as a .vcf file and open it on a mac, the address is properly shown, it's just not visible on the webUI.
I attach a fake contact downloaded from the webUI in which address is not shown, althought it's properly formatted for a mac. Just rename contactvcf.txt into contact.vcf to have the proper vcf card.
contactvcf.txt
Steps to reproduce
- Open
- Click on '....'
- Scroll down to '....'
- See error
Expected behavior
contact.vcf file should display the same information on apple apps and on the nextcloud webUI.
Address information contained in the attached vcf file should be displayed in the nextcloud webUI
All other fields are displayed but not the address
Actual behavior
Address field not displayed in webUI but is present on the file and synced with apple devices that display it correctly
