Troubleshooting

Problem What to try
After Grant access, the setup shows an error Check the address is exactly https://<cloud-address> (no /remote.php/…, no typos). Delete the half-created account under Settings → Accounts and try again. If it still fails, contact support.
The browser login page does not open Make sure a browser is installed and set as the default browser.
Calendar or contacts are empty In the account settings, check that the calendars/address books are ticked, then tap Sync now. In the Calendar app, check that the calendars are switched on.
New appointments/contacts don't appear on the computer They were probably saved to Phone/Device. Set the Nextcloud account as default (see Calendar, contacts and tasks) and move the entries.
Sync stops after a while Allow the sync app to run in the background: Settings → Apps → Account Manager / DAVx⁵ → Battery → Unrestricted.
Mail: "authentication failed" Check the username is the full email address. If you use an app password, check it was copied completely, or create a new one.
Mail: cannot send Check the outgoing server settings (port 465 SSL/TLS or 587 STARTTLS, authentication on).
