Hi Peter, Is there any plan to allow users in the future to select a database file when using the Android client?
My flashcard decks include cards I've made programmatically using word and sentence data. They have thousands of cards and the files are really big, so I've split some of them into separate files because they were too large for my old tablet PC to handle. It's also useful to be able to separate different study topics into different files. In the past I've used the Mnemosyne desktop client synchronised using Resilio Sync (and before that Dropbox), and it's worked really well. I'd really like to use the Android client the same way, but right now it looks impossible. So it would be great to know if just selecting a file within Android will be an option in the future. Thank you for all your hard work on this great tool, Victoria On Monday, August 21, 2017 at 4:13:49 PM UTC+9, Peter Bienstman wrote: > Hi, > > > > The dropbox syncing described here > http://mnemosyne-proj.org/help/syncing is unfortunately only for the desktop > clients, for Android at the moment you still need to use Mnemosyne’s built-in > sync protocol. > > > > Cheers, > > > > Peter > > > > > From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] > On Behalf Of Alok Mishra > > Sent: 20 August 2017 20:01 > > To: mnemosyne-proj-users <[email protected]> > > Subject: [mnemosyne-proj-users] Re: Mnemosyne and Dropbox > > > > > > Hello Adrián, > > > > > > > > > I want to sync default.db file from my laptop to android device via Dropbox. > Please guide me how to do it. > > > > > > > > > > Thanks > > > > > Alok > > > > On Thursday, 26 November 2015 21:10:55 UTC+5:30, Adrián Rodrigo Escudero > wrote: > > > Hi.
