We're pending major release with multiple new features being added. It will also include photo backup from Android/iOS to S3. Different sync modes including two-way sync will be available ~April 2023 - https://s3drive.canny.io/feature-requests/p/syncbackup-options-two-way-one-way

Filename encryption is on our Roadmap and we have a working prototype already. https://s3drive.canny.io/feature-requests/p/filenamefilepath-encryption (ETA ~April 2023).
We're making further research to understand standards or well established implementation in that area, so we can stay compatible.
The sharing functionality is based on S3 presign URLs, their limitation is that the signature can't be valid longer than 7 days, so every 7 days new link would have to be generated. We're researching how to overcome this limitation. For instance we could combine this with a link shortener, so there is single link that doesn't change, but under the hood we would regenerate the destination link as needed.
The encrypted share link has the master key at the end after the # character and looks like this:
https://s3.us-west-004.backblazeb2.com/my-s3drive/.aashare/hsnwye5bno3p/index.html?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=004060aad6064900000000044%2F20230214%2Fus-west-004%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20230214T095014Z&X-Amz-Expires=604800&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=abdcd875e2106ee54c6a1d1851617c7e694e121464c5ca9023526ce2836be595#GKSGYX4HGNAd4nTcXb/GIA==
What it does it tries to load the encrypted asset as usual, but it's not aware per se if an asset is encrypted. In the background JavaScript tries to fetch the asset and replaces the one on the screen with decrypted version. It looks like it has failed on your side. Can you go to the console (right-click -> inspect element) to see if there is anything abnormal (that is error in the Console or different than 200 status code in any of the network requests).
1. I'm happy to hear that folder name and file name is on the near roadmap for completion. Usability problem solved
2. The S3 presign URL concept is interesting. Can a link be done for a time period shorter than a week? I assume the user would need to have their program opened and some kind of timer to check if any links need to be signed again. Then the shortened link would need to be updated. It's a good idea actually but would want to make sure it's done in a trustless or trust minimized way. Also be careful deploying resources that you have to pay for as then you'd have ongoing costs. It depends what your monetization plan is long term I guess.
3. If the link is presigned, am I right to assume that there is no ability to revoke the sharing?
4. I'm actually not familiar. What is PhotoSync?
5. The link appears to work fine in Chrome but in Firefox it stops loading the page faster. If I click refresh, the image appears as it should. Strange but seems like all is fine. The things I would typically be sharing are not photos so it's not really a priority issue for me.
6. I'd love it if S3 drive had a different favicon so I can more easily distinguish it. I'd love it more if it was mounted as a drive letter in my file explorer. 
Actually, I think what I'd personally use most is if I could right click, go to "send to" and have S3 drive as a destination. I'd have to think about if I'd want it in the main folder or prompt me where to put it. I'd probably choose to have a popup to prompt me where I want it saved within S3 drive.

garage... and there is no way to provide region in S3Drive.
It seems that we may add additional form field to specify the region.toml file like this: s3_region = "us-east-1".
We auto-detect region from the endpoint URL and have a way to detect custom region from MinIO.... and if it doesn't work we use the most common default which is us-east-1.

The Discord server is hard to join from the app since it opens a webview, I'd recommend opening the invite externally so the Discord application can pick it up, or at least the standard web browser.
Trying out the application with MinIO, so far so good, pleased by the rename function that likely performs a copy + delete under the hood. It does what one would expect from an S3 client, no ads either, really liking it. .aainit file is our write test, as well as ETag response validation (which is required for not yet released syncing features), as some providers (talking mostly about iDrive E2 with SSE enabled) don't generate valid ETags. BTW. Would you like S3Drive to support read-only mode?
Regardless, we will try to improve clarity of this operation, so user feels more confident that we're not doing some shady write/reads.
Speaking of Trash itself, likely this week starting on Android first there will be a Settings option to disable Trash feature altogether (which is a soft-delete emulation, but slow and pointless if bucket already supports versioning). Versioning UI with restore options will come little bit later. .aainit file it's fine, but I'd prefer if the app saved the test results locally then deleted the file. I want to be able to write files so I wouldn't use a read-only mode, and we can always create read-only access keys if we want to be sure that's how the app will behave! I'm very interested by the share link expiry slider or date picker though, I never share for 7 days, it's either a smaller duration or permanent.
Cool, I don't mind not having the versioning UI yet, but had to delete my file versions + the trash versions to cleanup my bucket so… yeah, trash is cool but I assume most people who want that have versioning enabled. I assume you already have quite a few buckets on various providers to test your features, but I can provide a MinIO one if it could be of interest.
There was a 2nd folder with an HTML page in it, not sure what it was about but same thing I'd say, that's probably the least expected action from an S3 browser… While I audited the actions and indeed didn't find anything malicious, that could get me assassinated by my colleagues if I ever connected a more important bucket to the app.

Fair enough, we'll plan this in our items along with the slider which needs to be done anyway.

Slider now works, so it's possible to set expiry time shorter than maximum of 7 days. There is an option to use raw preshared URLs.
We've also introduced basic Version UI. It is now possible to preview the revisions. In a next update we will allow opening, preview, deleting and restoring to particular version.
Thank you for these suggestions, they were great and helped us to validate it all !
... and as always we're open for a feedback.

... and we're already finding some versioning implementation differences between providers. E.g. MinIO version restore works differently than Backblaze/Wasabi. There are couple bugs (or features?) when deleting entries that we've found on Backblaze... we'll have to deal somehow with all that... but that's fine which extends versioning features, modifies behaviour of copy/rename/move/trash function to seamlessly support versioning and don't duplicate version, also there is an option to restore specific versions or delete object versions to save some space. There is also improved error handling, so in case of an Object Lock there will be an error message and relevant Log which can be viewed by long-tapping the app version number.
Versioning capabilities are configurable in the Settings.
There is a space usage indicator in the left panel / drawer.
There is a new Recent section, which displays all recently modified files.
Search function is improved, so the index is built faster and also includes implicit folder search (e.g. if there is a file: folder/file.txt, but folder/ entry doesn't explicitly exists, it is still searchable)
There is an option to hide files starting with: .
As usual there are couple other performance improvements and bugfixes.
We would love to hear how are you finding new changes and if version management during file operations is what you would expect.

In theory this could work. Basically some private key hidden behind the API could generate a verifiable token which would be stored on the user's bucket (and likely device for little bit of redundancy) and could be then verified. The issue that I see so far is that not every user would want their bucket to be written to with some "licensing" file. 
feature_flags int that computes to an array of pro features with bitwise operations, easy on your API and authentication gateway or whatever you do behind the scenes.

null response, which is somewhat expected. I would expect to get the SSL related error instead. 1OS Error: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED: self signed certificate. And I indeed have self-signed certificate but I followed your instructions from https://github.com/s3drive/app/issues/19 (https://proxyman.io/posts/2020-09-29-Install-And-Trust-Self-Signed-Certificate-On-Android-11) and my browser on Andriod recognizes this certificate (if I go to minio browser, my Chrome is fine with the cert). But S3Drive continues to fail with the same error.
I'm using the latest version.

It make sense to apply these improvements before focusing on background upload, so there is a stable base. 1 1 2

Please note that whilst we support both encrypted and unencrypted files in the same location, Rclone doesn't seem to like the mix and won't display existing unencrypted files for the encrypted remote. In such case it's better to either keep everything encrypted globally or have dedicate paths with encrypted-only or unencrypted-only files. 1

This would either mean that you would have to generate some activation key on our website from time to time and paste it to the app... or once you activate features in your app with some activation key you would have to deactivate it before you could use it on some other Window's client.

tocloud, // Upload to remote, delete remotely if file was deleted locally
tocloud_keepdeleted, // Won't remove file remotely if it was deleted locally
tocloud_compat, // If file is removed remotely, local won't know that, it will be reuploaded on a next ocassion
In principle:
"To remote" will upload file to remote and delete it remotely if it was deleted locally. If file is deleted remotely it won't get re-uploaded again.
"To remote (don't delete remotely)" - the same as "To remote", except it will keep file on the remote even if it was deleted locally.
The above 2 options require bucket versioning support.
The "compatibility mode" doesn't require versioning API, however that makes it not aware of any file changes in between, so it's simply blind one way copy instead of sync.
I hope that helps little bit. We'll build documentation once we sort couple challenges related to E2E encryption with syncing, as depending how we manage to solve these problems it may influence the available options.

We plan to implement QR code login, but the QR size limitation makes QR not a solution for all use cases.
There are other means, e.g. QR code could transfer the "place holder ID" which would be then used to fetch the required details, but then again this setup would require more moving parts.
We're very much open on this.

If there is a need we could certainly simplify the format, so things gets smartly derived if not present. encryptionKey field is required to setup the encryption.
Speaking of decryption, it's an open format. Naturally you can use S3Drive (on any platform) to access encrypted data (you'll need to access bucket with data and setup E2E with the same password that was initially used for encryption).
You can also mount data using as network drive (that's possible from S3Drive after clicking on tray icon).
Alternatively you can access data using rclone command, as we're 1:1 compatible with their encryption: https://rclone.org/crypt/#file-encryption
In that case please visit our docs to understand how you can set up rclone command: https://docs.s3drive.app/advanced/#setup-with-rclone
Then you would be able to use commands like copy: https://rclone.org/commands/rclone_copy/ or sync: https://rclone.org/commands/rclone_sync/ or couple others depending on your needs.
There are couple options out there.

1content://, since we operate on network resources, what we get with S3 is just a network URL, that we don't store locally (except the video cache) and pass directly to the video player. Since data isn't stored on Android device locally I don't think there is a method to expose it as a content URI.
If I understand little bit more about your use case I might be able to come up with some other approach.

I would like to buy the lifetime offer, but I have one question first.
Is my s3 storage automatically e2e encrypted after the purchase? Or do I have to do something technical?
I mainly want to use S3Drive as a drive mount under windows and also be able to access the storage via your app on my smartphone. And the entire cloud should of course be encrypted.

Were files that were uploaded before the e2ee was activated now subsequently encrypted? Or are they still unencrypted?
If so, how can I see whether a file is encrypted or not? 1

I use S3Drive to backup media from my phone to cloud and for online access to other media files (mostly older photos).
I am yet to find perfect backup strategy for photos, but I would say at this stage bigger problem is to keep things tidy, organized and deduplicated.
Eventually I will get to that. 1

server_side_encryption = aws:kms in the config, which we've checked solves the issue, the challenge is that we don't know if user actually enabled that setting on the iDrive side.
The quick fix is to turn off the: "Default encryption" setting for the iDrive bucket, then the mount shall upload objects to iDrive without issues.
We need to spend more time on this to research if we can detect this setting or whether we need to implement prompt/question for the user and provide configurable setting. server_side_encryption = aws:kms in the config, which we've checked solves the issue, the challenge is that we don't know if user actually enabled that setting on the iDrive side.

i have indeed Default encryption enabled at iDrive.
I used your documentation for bucket setup https://docs.s3drive.app/setup/bucket/ and there is also default encryption enabled. But as you wrote there you used Backblaze. Maybe there its not a problem.
You could add there the information that for idrive it should be disabled.
I did the quick fix and now its working, Thank you very much! 1

Writes or Full (combined with not yet configurable via S3Drive: vfs-cache-max-age setting, default 1h; In other words after 1h of not accessing files, they will be evicted from cache).
If you switch to: "Old mount experience" in the Settings and have Rclone CLI installed, you can then lookup the exact command in the Logs and play with the settings yourself (based on this doc: https://rclone.org/commands/rclone_mount/#vfs-file-caching)
We could then provide more configuration options in S3Drive ... or you are free to keep using Rclone outside of the S3Drive ecosystem. 1

Cached mode still ignores the Hide dotfiles setting though.
As for a better time picker, I think it's provided by Android:
https://developer.android.com/develop/ui/views/components/pickers
But I guess you want something cross-platform that looks exactly the same on both Android and iOS?

In the Sync screen, when you press play on a stopped item, you're asked "Would you like to start sync process now or wait until schedule is met?" and your options are Cancel or Start. When asked "now or wait?" I'd expect to be able to answer Now and Wait. As it is now, when you tap Cancel it interpretes that as wait, but I'd expect a Cancel button to cancel the action I just initiated, i.e. pressing the play button. But the item doesn't return to stopped/disactivated state when tapping Cancel. So it seems Cancel should actually be labeled Wait.
Total storage space for one of my hosts is listed as 9 instead of 10 GB. It seems it's using GiB instead of GB and simply doing a math.floor() on that, hence misrepresenting the total by 10%.
When without internet connection, but with a VPN that reports "connected" (Proton VPN does this, no matter how long you've been offline; I can imagine local VPNs used for blocking certain types of traffic also do this), in most screens the loading spinner is permanently overlayed on the screen, which is also blurred when "Blur screen when loading" is enabled. The app is navigable but the back gesture doesn't work in the affected screens (using the UI to navigate back works fine).
The time picker for "Sync every x minutes" always opens at 30 minutes, regardless of the current setting (e.g. it's set to 1200 minutes, which is 20 hours, and you want to change it to 22 hours but you have to start from 30 minutes, which is especially cumbersome since the picker acts like a clock you have to forward manually)
. My log is filled with tens or hundreds of entries like this one:

1 "kmsEncryption":true in the json config, but may I also suggest writing server_side_encryption = aws:kms in the rclone config kmsEncryption is set to true in the config, then we should already be setting: server_side_encryption = aws:kms in the Rclone config.
Does S3Drive behave differently?
The issue that we're aware of is that we only display dialog which sets the: kmsEncryption value when you mount a drive (we ask that for AWS and iDrive only).
We need to fix that, so dialog is displayed also for Sync and other functionalities which internally use Rclone.
Even though I don't necessarily recommend modifying app's config, a temporary solution might be setting: kmsEncryption: true in the config (ideally when app is disabled) and then starting app.
What's your S3 provider by the way? server_side_encryption being set in the Rclone config.
Isn't what you finding? 
1
It was indeed myself.
Each S3 provider has a slightly different billing model: https://docs.s3drive.app/setup/bucket/#s3
Just for start you can try free 10GB account at Backblaze, setup a bucket and connect from the app: https://docs.s3drive.app/setup/bucket/
If you were to store 125GB, you would pay approximately 0.125*$6 = 0.75 US$ per month based on current ($6
per TB/mo)
https://www.backblaze.com/cloud-storage/pricing
There are other things to watch out for, that is egress (if you were to download more than 3x125GB month = 375GB) or use a lot of API calls (e.g. run some backup syncing very frequently).
You can use S3Drive entirely for free and if you need more advanced features or encryption feel free to check our paid offering: https://s3drive.app/pricing 1 1Rclone initialization failed.

Couple questions: Does S3Drive support Filen and/or IceDrive? 1

rclone first (there is no streaming interface that we could use). rclone first (there is no streaming interface that we could use). 
S3Drive and the name that we've chosen back in 2022 probably doesn't help here.
As such S3Drive is a simple back-end for Rclone, technically in some ways it is a GUI that sits on top of Rclone, but that's our additional feature, not the core one.
The core one revolves around S3 support and storage plans will be available later this year.
We still plan to expand support for Rclone back-ends, including preview, thumbnails etc. 1 1NoSuchKey using XML format.
hcm.s3storage.vn on the other hand returns invalid error code (500 instead of 4xx) and invalid format, HTML instead of XML:

Once I've skipped the S3Drive read check (not possible currently from the app itself) I've actually managed to run couple actions, that is, list, copy/rename, delete.
... so there are two non-exclusive solutions.
1. Contact: hcm.s3storage.vn so they can fix the issue with their S3 API and make it compliant with the standard.
2. S3Drive to allow user to skip the read check <--- this is something we would be willing to allow, but it would take use a while, as we're busy with other work at the moment.NoSuchKey using XML format.

username and password from the Rclone configuration after setting up Proton, please see my comment here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/18s211d/comment/kzfqub7/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
I haven't used that myself long enough, it may happen that at some point username and password will be required for the resetup if by any chance: client_refresh_token expires.
In the future we will allow password striping in-app, so no manual step is required.
c) In general you may monitor any undesired file access to config file, on Windows: C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\rclone\rclone.conf, as this is where sensitive data is stored.
In the future we will support Rclone encrypted config: https://rclone.org/docs/#configuration-encryption \\server\s3drive_proton.
In 1.9.2 version which is available as pre-release (and will be released to general public in a few days): https://github.com/s3drive/windows-app/releases/tag/1.9.2 we've added an option to disable network (and made it default setting) mount in case you don't want to share it.
In order to start mount after reboot, you can use combination of: "Launch app at startup" and then: "Mount drive after app starts".
In the future we will add an option to start the app in tray: https://s3drive.canny.io/feature-requests/p/desktop-app-minimize-to-tray-dont-close so S3Drive windows doesn't pop up each time. 1

support in s3drive.app domain. It's indeed good to know that it somewhat works on GrapheneOS, as we haven't had a chance to try it out just yet.
Background sync should work fine on Android, but as always the devil's is in the details, that is battery settings and how aggressively phone manufacturer interferes with the background framework... there is always a possibility that we've introduced some bug or there is some edge case that we haven't handled yet. We would be happy to try reproducing the "background" issue that you're experiencing and work on the solution.
What's your back-end type, is that S3 or Rclone? Do you have E2E enabled?

Directory contents move/rename protection isn't present for Rclone cipher, which I've mentioned here: https://github.com/rclone/rclone/issues/7192 (scroll down to: 4. No path protection), so there is no risk that data will be corrupted during move/rename.
We receive bug reports frequently from our users, but there was no data corruption being mentioned (other than lost password), if that helps you to feel reassured. detect, I mean that encryption scheme in both cases has built-in mechanism to verify data integrity, so it's not possible to flip bit of data in the middle of file (HDD corruption or deliberate attack by adversary) and expect that this will be undetected.
In some use cases user must be ensured that content that they've encrypted actually belongs to them and wasn't altered. E.g. some legal text or some evidence etc.

and I'm also a bit paranoid.
As for the detect I see thank you for the clarification, I'm not much in cryptography but I do have some knowledge about it. I was thinking It would automatically repair broken bytes whilst reading the file lol
Last questions. Is there a way to donate to S3Drive with any amount? You see I'm a big fan of projects like these so I often donate to help the developers If I can. Also where can I suggest features or perhaps report bugs?
Another P.S, uploaded files with dot can't be seen on transfers even though Hide Dotfiles is disabled.

.empty file as a single file from which its parent folder prefix is born.
Alternatively we could try to insert: folder/ key as a folder placeholder, but that's not universally support across providers and isn't cross-compatible approach. E.g. MinIO (most common self-hosted file-based S3 server doesn't support it).
1.9.3 that we're just releasing (on macOS it shall be available within ~2 days) there is improved concurrency for multipart uploads: https://s3drive.app/changelog which might make multipart uploads faster than if it was disabled (it was the other round previously).
The speed bottleneck for single big file might still be single-threaded encryption XSalsa20-Poly1305 (which is lighter than AES-GCM used by Cryptomator, but doesn't have benefits of hardware encryption which AES has).
For multiple files upload encryption speed this shouldn't be an issue, as encryption load would be spread evenly on multiple CPU threads/cores.
In the next releases we will be improving single big file encryption speeds, by providing multi-threaded chunk encryption. We're actively improving in all these areas. .empty file as a single file from which its parent folder prefix is born.

rclone obscure is meant to prevent "eyedropping" only. Imagine someone watches you behind your back.rclone config file path, which likely resolves to: /home/<user>/.config/rclone/rclone.conf on Ubuntu.

glibc and its own dependencies it gets trickier... and the solution is actually to use the oldest possible OS to build the AppImage itself, but then app relies on libmpv2, whereas the older build system has only libmpv1 available and so on... and with FUSE I don't even remember the problem.

Thanks 1 I paid for android app, now going to buy full version via website. I was looking for ages for such application which could run on linux. I used to be big proton fan, but they keep ignoring linux users so this is nice alternative to proton drive.
hope these values will stay the same in the future as they are now. 1 2

XSalsa20-Poly1305, Kopia uses: CHACHA20-POLY1305-HMAC-SHA256.
It also uses different storage layout.

and
https://kopia.io/docs/advanced/architecture/#content-addressable-object-storage-caos
that we would have to parse/decrypt and understand in order to produce file list viewable to the user.
Definitely possible, but given our workload and other features we would spread ourselves too thin if we've started work on that

s3drive://sync might actually open the Sync screen directly without necessary user input in the drawer.1.9.11 release as well which aims to fix the background (for media uploads) after Android 14 imposed certain restrictions and it's broke since we updated SDK recently.
We were forced by Google to use latest SDK by the end of August ... but our existing background processing approach specific approval from Google: https://developer.android.com/about/versions/14/behavior-changes-14#fgs-types and https://stackoverflow.com/a/77186316 s3drive://sync might actually open the Sync screen directly without necessary user input in the drawer. 
I was previously using Google Drive but want to move away from Google as much as possible. S3Drive looks great and I love how I can essentially "self-host" with it by using any S3 Compatible storage

subfolder you would see something like this e.g. Files > folder > subfolder.
If you tap on folder you would go one level up. In some cases the level might be hidden behind: ... if there isn't enough space in this bar, in such case you can tap it to unhide it and then swipe left/right to see all levels.

In some cases the level might be hidden behind: ... if there isn't enough space in this bar, in such case you can tap it to unhide it and then swipe left/right to see all levels. Phone screens are narrow and the path bar isn't even using the full width, so it'll often come down to tapping the …, scrolling all the way to the end, locating the last / and tapping the folder name in front of that. Every. Single. Time.
In comparison, my whole life I've navigated up with just one gesture, key combination or the click or tap of a button or .. entry atop the files list, which is effortless. (Okay, in the early 1990s it was "cd.. ENTER" but even that was faster )
Navigation feels broken in S3Drive on iPhone to me, which I guess is somewhat due to the cross platform development approach (which works for Android but not iPhone). It is nice to have an iOS client at all though!
I think the path bar in S3Drive, at least on mobile, could be improved to solve this. Have a look at the accompanying screenshots, all showing a folder called "WhatsApp Profile Photos", deep down in the directory structure.
In S3Drive, the path bar provides almost no information. It appears we are in a folder called "WhatsApp Profile" but this is not true. The folder name is actually truncated but there is no indication of this. It's even worse when I browse the sibling folder "WhatsApp Stickers": the path bar shows "Files > ... > WhatsApp" (omitting the Stickers part). Very misleading.
And that's all the information we get from the path bar.
Compare this to AOSP Files and Google Files. Both show a path bar with the untruncated folder names of the current, parent and grandparent folders. Which is also directly scrollable. And can be used to navigate up one or multiple levels with a single tap (which would solve my issue with S3Drive on iPhone).

We can restore access to your encrypted raw files (e.g. forgot password feature), but we can't restore your data encryption key, as we never had it in first place. That's the consequence of E2E encryption model.
If you feel you're not able to protect your password, then you shouldn't enable E2E encryption, but then you need to be aware there maybe privacy risks in not doing so.
That's a classic example of: "You can't have your cake and eat it (too)" conflict.

Writes caching mode (available in Profile settings), otherwise you could use either Writes or Full to speed up reads for other users using mount, as files would be cached locally.
At the moment the cache size is limited to 1024M, but in the future depending on user's input we could make this param configurable.
If your connection is fast enough (and your remote server is close), then you might not even need the cache, as operations would be fast enough.
I would be keen to know if such setup works for you.
