About this app

A safe home for all your data. Access & share your files, calendars, contacts, mail & more from any device, on your terms. This is the developer version of the official Nextcloud Android app.

* Do not install this version for your productive work! * Intended for users willing to test new features and report bugs if they occur. * Includes brand-new, untested features which might lead to instabilities and data loss. * Can be installed alongside the official Nextcloud app (which is available at F-Droid, too). * The main source code branch is checked once a day for changes. * New builds are generated as needed (usually several times a week, but not necessarily daily). Please report any problems discovered at https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues Thanks for testing ;-)

How to install this safely

How to verify the file you downloaded

Before you install anything, confirm the file is the one described here. On a computer, run shasum -a 256 your-download.apk (macOS or Linux) or certutil -hashfile your-download.apk SHA256 (Windows), then compare the output character-for-character with the SHA-256 on this page. If a single character differs, the file is not the build we recorded — delete it.

What the signing certificate proves

Every Android app is signed with a private key that only its developer holds. The fingerprint on this page is a hash of the matching public certificate, and it proves continuity rather than identity: it tells you a build came from whoever signed the earlier ones. Android enforces this at install time — if a package claiming to be com.nextcloud.android.beta is signed with a different key, the system will refuse to install it over your existing copy. A fingerprint that changes between releases is worth pausing on, because a repackaged app that has been modified by someone else cannot keep the original signature.

How to roll back to an earlier version

If the current release misbehaves, 20260506 is the last build before it. Android will not install an older version code over a newer one, so you must uninstall Nextcloud Dev first — which clears its local data unless you have a backup. Reinstall the older APK only if its signing fingerprint matches the build you already trust, and check the API range: an older release may target an Android version your device has moved past.

Why we list sources instead of hosting everything

The official store channel is almost always the right choice: it updates automatically and carries the publisher's own distribution guarantees. A direct APK is useful when a device has no store access, when a rollout has not reached your region, or when you need a specific version — and only when the publisher has authorized that copy. APKBrowse does not list pirated, cracked, or unauthorized rebuilds of Nextcloud Dev, and a listing is removed when the evidence for it stops holding up.
