See detailed info about release variants and which is recommended to fit your needs.
"nel0x" has announced to continue publishing on the play store. I welcome his help and the work I think he'll put into his mission. It's up to you, reading this, to decide if to trust and/or support him or go with the F-Droid release channel of this app instead. You don't know me and I don't know him... we are all volunteers in the spirit of open source.
I've been using Syncthing-Fork for a while now. It seems to work fine for me, however you do need to launch it occasionally as sometimes it can get killed when backgrounded depending on your flavour of Android.
I set up the run conditions when I used it on my poco phone (poco and xiaomi are notorious background task killers) and that worked well for me. I had to launch it less than when I didn't set run conditions IIRC.
ever since I upgraded though, I stopped using syncthing lol

It's been a weird situation.
But then they list Syncthing-Fork in the docs, seemingly giving the fork their blessing
https://github.com/catfriend1/syncthing-android <-- the fork repo
So I guess your main options are:
- F-Droid
- Google Play
For additional info about not releasing anymore on play store from Catfriend1 :
ah, so both are legit. thanks.
