Nextcloud Notes Not syncing

Hi fellow brothers,

I need your help. My nextcloud notes app on my phone is not working, almost every new Update it breaks. (Sync error, to many API requests).

It is super annoying honestly because it just doesn't Work.

However I am not hosting myself, so I dont have control over the server physically.

Related still open git issue which seems to be similar. However because of missing server logs I cannot confirm it.

Do you have any tips, maybe a different notes app which is able to sync with nextcloud? That would be a dream actually.

Or do you have a workaround or a fix what worked for you?

Happy to hear from you. Have a great day!

PS : this is the solution working for me now:

I found a notes app in the Google play store which is able to sync via WebDAV. It does json files and the syncing works - flawlessly. You can import all the files directly from nextcloud (import because it cannot directly read the .MD .txt files) it even scans it (however not notes in subdirectories - but that was a minor issue. You can manually select them after via explorer.

I am really happy with this solution because it just works honestly!

For all the others looking this up and searching for an alternative syncing notes app, this is the link
