Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, the ownCloud app only allows for auto uploading one directory of images and one directory of videos at once. It's very limiting and also not very clear about what file types it will upload. I also want to be able to upload more than just images and videos and more than one directory automatically.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice if the app could allow for adding many custom directories in a list and adding custom file types (or all file types) for each one.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing the Android app's current automatic upload settings and implementation, then determine how directory and file-type selections are represented. Done means users can configure multiple directories, choose custom or all file types for each, and upload them automatically.
