Almost every "Other File Provider" is greyed out #51
Comments
This is actually not a bug and it's just how most of 3rd party file providers work. But I think we should make this very clear in the onboarding screen that this is expected. |
If anyone is wondering about the technical details: Apps need to support "picking folders" via We're not sure if we should support this key either because it doesn't seem to really work. But we're still investigating it during the beta. E.g., adding a vault inside a vault doesn't work (yet?). |
I understand, Apple has never been very transparent on anything anyway. FYI it works with Boxcryptor for any Cloud services. However I don't know how they manage it. Also, as you can see on the screen shot Cryptomator for Onedrive doesn't appear on the list although I added it to the Beta. |
If I'm not mistaken, Boxcryptor doesn't have the option to add "other file providers" (via the |
To be honest the process on macOS and iOS is a bit different. On macOS you can use Boxcryptor on any Could providers even if they are not on the list, like Mega for instance.

I'm trying to access a Cryptomator vault from within Textastic but the Cryptomator extension is greyed out. Is this caused by the same issue in this thread? Will it be "fixed" in a update? |

WebDav is not always the best choice as most cloud storage providers don't support MFA/2FA on WebDav, which encourages bad practices especially when one WebDav key gives access to the entire storage or some providers force users to switch off 2FA in regards to activate WebDav. This is not a Cryptomator problem but those challenges exist. |
It'd be extremely useful to me. The only app I currently use that has this enabled is Working Copy and it's great for automation using shortcuts and many other things. It would also allow to people use Cryptomator folders in third party file browsers like FileBrowser, Documents or FE. |
When choosing Open Existing Vault / Other File Provider all choices are greyed out.
