Description

Hi,

I tried using CloudNotes on my iPad. I have Nextcloud Notes working on my server, and working great with the Android app. But the ios app is simply not connecting/syncing. I can autorize my server, and I can see it's logged in in my Nextcloud account:

Mozilla/5.0 (iOS) CloudNotes/4.1.4

But past this point, nothing happen. No note syncing, in any direction. There's no error on my Nextcloud server or in the app. It's just doing nothing. I tried the toggle to clear the cache on CloudNotes's settings in ios. I reinstalled the app. No success.

Since Nextcloud Notes is working great on the web interface and in Android, I don't think the problem is with my installation. I would be happy to send any logs to help fix this.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the iOS or iPadOS login and sync flow against a Nextcloud Notes server, comparing it with the working web and Android clients. Check the app's cache-clearing and reinstall behavior, then collect iOS and server logs. Done means notes sync in both directions after authorization or the failure is narrowed to a specific step.
