How can I properly sync a folder on android? (lemmy.ml)

Hi. I wanted to fully sync a document folder on my android tablet, so I can edit some documents on it on the go, just like I do on the desktop, but I dont really understand how to do it with the android app.

Like, I remember google drive had an option to make a folder available offline and give me the option to navigate said documents.

I dont like editing documents directly from the nextcloud app because in my experience is slow, so I just like using Text editing apps and sometimes I dont have internet, so would be good to sync them after I get a WiFi connection again.

Please help. Thanks.

While this is a nextcloud sub, I hope I dont need to give a nextcloud solution.

I personally use for everything Syncthing and especially on Android for Picture sync and sometimes Documents/Notes.

I use a Raspberry PI with a large HDD that is always connected to the internet and available. With this I can easily sync PCs that are not Powered on at the same time.

I agree. I don't think nextcloud supports "keeping a folder in sync" on phone.
