Which apps do you need on your phone and tablet?
With your phone or tablet, you can access your WebOké Nextcloud from anywhere. Which app you need depends on what you want to do. The Nextcloud apps are free and come straight from the makers. Only DAVx5 (for calendar and contacts on Android) costs a small amount in Google Play; it's free via F-Droid.

Recognise the real app
If you search for it yourself in the App store or Google Play, choose the app that's simply called Nextcloud, from the maker Nextcloud GmbH, with the blue logo featuring three circles. There's no such thing as a WebOké app: you use the official app and enter the address of your WebOké Nextcloud in it.
| App | App store | Google Play | F-Droid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nextcloud | App store | Google Play | F-Droid |
| Nextcloud Talk | App store | Google Play | F-Droid |
| DAVx5 (Android only) | Google Play | F-Droid |
Without an app: your phone's browser
You can also simply use your phone's browser. Go to the address of your Nextcloud and log in. You'll then see a view adapted to the small screen, with the same apps as on your computer.
Logging in with the login code
Your WebOké Nextcloud is secured with a login code (two-factor authentication). The Nextcloud and Nextcloud Talk apps log in via a login screen from your Nextcloud, where you also enter the code. The app then automatically creates an app password. DAVx5 can log in the same way (Calendar and contacts on Android with DAVx5). Only for apps that can't display a login screen, such as the iPhone's calendar and contacts, do you create an app password yourself. See App passwords: when and how to use them.
