Descrizione

Actual behaviour

Can't connect to Nextcloud instance if it's on local network.

Expected behaviour

It'd be nice (and convenient) to be able to choose a local network, just like you can do with Transdroid (Settings > Servers > [Your server] > Advanced settings > Local Network and Local IP or host). My server runs inside my home network and it is very annoying to have to either change the settings when I get home or to have to access my Nextcloud instance using mobile data. I hope this makes sense.

Steps to reproduce

  1. go to local network
  2. open app
  3. doesn't work

Environment data

Direzione di ricerca
Investigate the existing settings UI in the Nextcloud Android app, particularly the server configuration screen. Look at how other apps like Transdroid implement local network detection (e.g., adding a 'Local Network' toggle and separate local IP/host fields). The implementation would involve modifying the server settings layout and network connection logic to prefer a local address when on the same network. Check comments for user feedback and any maintainer input; the issue is open but has no PRs, so it's available for contribution.
