Download
The desktop client is a program that allows you to store your data from the cloud locally on your computer or laptop. The client runs in the background and automatically synchronises your data so that you always have the latest version of a file available on all devices.
The app for mobile devices is ideal for viewing and sharing files on the go. You can upload, delete and move files (such as photos). However, because mobile devices usually have limited storage space, your files are not automatically downloaded. A file is not saved on your device until you manually access it.
Please note that we are currently migrating from ownCloud to Nextcloud. Therefore, this section contains clients for both ownCloud and Nextcloud. If you are not sure which client to install, please refer to the list of migrated instances. Further information on migrating to Nextcloud can be found here.
The following Sciebo instances already use Nextcloud:

Nextcloud Clients
Before installing the new client the old client needs to be uninstalled.
Desktop
- Windows 10+ 64-Bit
- Mac OS X
- Linux AppImage (w/o VFS)
If a message appears that the client is not authorized to access the
application, one needs to remove all "oauth2" related entries from the
sciebo.cfg
(use your operating system's search to find this file as the
location differs from installation to installation) and remove all "oauth2"
related entries.
Alternatively, you can remove the synchronization and set it up anew.
Mobile
As long not all sciebo instances have been migrated, iOS users can use the unbranded Nextcloud client from the app store.
For Android you can use the following APK:
