I have done this step:
4.- Uncompress that file and move the folders include and lib into iMEGA/Vendor/sdk/bindings/ios/3rdparty

Automatically upload all new photos and videos in the background. Currently, one is forced to open the mega app once in a while because if you don't, every image and video taken since one has last opened it, won't be uploaded to mega. Even if the app is in the launcher (not forced closed). This is cumbersome.

Edit: Also, on the App Store, it says "Automatic Synchronization of photos and videos". If I need to undertake a manual action for it to happen, it's not truly automatic. This is misleading.

General Information

• MEGA Version:

• iOS Version(s): 13

• Devices/Simulators: iPhone 11

• Reproducible? (Yes/No):yes

What happened?

When mega is opened, it will start uploading whatever videos (and I would assume pictures) are new that it has not seen before. But it will not go back and re-upload things that have been edited.

What did you expect to happen?

After rotating a video in apple photos (the actual video was landscape, but for some reason it was marked as portrait when taken -- so I had to rotated 270° to get it to work), mega would not re-upload the fixed Video, Nor would it upload the rotated video as a new file.

Also, this is the worst voice to text I have had yet.

General Information

• MEGA Version: Was latest for iOS 13

• iOS Version(s): 13.7

• Devices/Simulators: iphone 11

• Reproducible? (Yes/No): yes

What happened?

Apple's OS decided to uninstall apps to make room.
I attempted to reinstall from the app store.

I was told I had to upgrade the OS, now iOS 14 was a requirement.

What did you expect to happen?

I expected to re-install the version that works with iOS 13.
I did not expect to get a newer version, just the same version I had before.

Additional info: As far as I can tell, I can only get an app on my iphone by downloading from the app store. There does not seem (as far as I can tell) any other way to get an app on my iphone.

• Reproducible? (Yes/No): Yes

What happened?

Every time I simply clean the trash can of my cloud, the app seems to not do anything. I need to go back and check if the trash can has been correctly cleaned up.

Note: this happens ONLY if I perform a cleaning from: app settings, file management, trash can, empty the trash can.

What did you expect to happen?

Once I perform the cleaning, the amount of space used by the trash can, is updated to "0 B". Exactly how it works if I decide to remove all the previous versions of my files in the cloud.

When we choose file to upload to mega via app, I hope we could upload multiple files at a time.
(Just like we choose multiple files to move or copy in iOS file app)

The Mega app is great! This issue covers how to debug and run the Mega iOS app on your own device. Anyone who is interested in customizing their own version of the Mega app can find this helpful.

1. Apple developer program

Firstly, you need an apple developer program, not the free version, but the paid one that include iCloud, push notifications, and other capabilities available only in the paid program.

2. Install Xcode and CMake

• Install Xcode in your system.
• Install CMake, and create a symbolic link in folder '/usr/local/bin' after install so that you can run it directly in the Xcode shell:

sudo "/Applications/CMake.app/Contents/bin/cmake-gui" --install

3. Clone the repo

Repo link: https://github.com/meganz/iOS

4. Update submodule

• open .gitmodules file under repo root directory, and change the URL:

1. Change url for karere submodule, use this one: https://github.com/meganz/MEGAchat.git
2. Change url for SDK submodule, use this one: https://github.com/meganz/SDK.git

• run command to update:

git submodule update --init --recursive

5. Download 3rdparty packages

1. Download the prebuilt third party dependencies from this link: https://mega.nz/file/AENVGYjC#HhUgIOBY69zVZZtOa4e6vdySpHefnUo4GcoQYElmEo4
2. Uncompress that file and move the folders webrtc , include and lib into iMEGA/Vendor/sdk/bindings/ios/3rdparty.

6. Modify Xcode project

• Open iMEGA.xcworkspace in Xcode, wait Swift Package to update.
• Select target MEGA, change Bundle Identifier to your own com.xxx , and choose Automatically manage signing with your own account.
• Change default App Groups group.mega.ios to your own name group.com.xxx , iCloud Containers make the same change iCloud.com.xxx .
• Do the same for other targets: MEGAPicker, MEGAPickerFileProvider, MEGAShare, MEGANotifications, MEGAWidgetExtension, MEGAIntent.

7. Modify source code

• Modify file MEGANotifications.entitlements , delete this line: com.apple.developer.usernotifications.filtering .
• Modify MEGAConstants.m change value of MEGAGroupIdentifier to your own group id: group.com.xxx .
• Modify AppGroupContainer.swift change value of identifier to your own group id: group.com.xxx .
• Modify iMEGA/Extensions/MEGAPickerFileProvider/Info.plist change NSExtensionFileProviderDocumentGroup to your own group id: group.com.xxx .

8. Run the project with real iPhone device but not the simulator

Running in the simulator will crash when app launch.

• Reproducible? (Yes/No): Yes

What happened?

I have mega set up to request verification on entry by form of Face ID, it requires a pin code as a backup anyway. Every so often, on average about every 1.5 days or so, I enter mega and instead of it requesting Face ID, it requests the pin code, after entering it, I immediately check the settings and find out that Face ID is turned off. I switch it on and it works as it should again, until next time that happens.
Something is causing the device/app to turn off the setting by itself. No one else has access to my device/app, and I certainly didn't turn it off. This is a very weird bug.

What did you expect to happen?

The settings should stay like I set them to...

when trying to build with my actual iPhone as the target:

• Reproducible?: possibly. to increase the chance of reproducing,
  close iOS app,
  connect megasync client in another pc and login with the same account that the mobile device is set,
  both the pc and the iDevice must be connected within the same network.
  switching to mobile data the mega app gui shows up as usual.
  switching back again to wireless (the same network as another megasync client) the app stays in splash screen.

What happened?

tap on mega app in iOS will open the splash screen.
the splash screen stays there forever with it's "loading" animation rotating (not frozen).
SPLASH SCREEN: https://mega.nz/#!RoJxTJJR!YdLZfXZ39Jq-cOvB46nxRgMqe6Mb5RoKlz9wwqW-GsE
the app gui won't show anytime soon.

What did you expect to happen?

it is expected that the splash screen will stay there for a few seconds and then the app's gui is supposed to show up for the user to interact with.

A lot of people seem to be having the issue of the bar being stuck: https://www.reddit.com/r/MEGA/comments/m472ex/upload_in_progress_xx_files_pending_wont_continue/

Sometimes this happens due to huge file sizes, sometimes because of broken files.

It would be nice to see which files are currently being uploaded.

Hello, I am using the Mega IOS app on my iphone 11 pro. When I run the application it works, but it is crashing when I want to open it from Files app or want to use the share functionality of ios choosing the mega app or files app to load the files to my cloud account. I have pro II account in Mega.

Hello, I am using the latest version of iOS, Xcode 10.3 and the current version of MEGA, using Mac OS Mojave.
I did everything like it was in the instruction but I get this type of error when I try to build the project on the simulator or my device:

why does the app collect this much data ?

General Information

• Devices/Simulators: iPad mini 4

• Reproducible? (Yes/No): yes

What happened?

In Safari, Goto to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Hurricane_Carmen_1974_satellite.jpg
Click the graphic, and it will go from the webpage to just the graphic.
Tap the square with the up arrow (there’s a name for that icon, isn’t there?) on the top right side.
Find Mega (red square with M) and tap.
Mega opens for a second and then shuts down going back to safari.

What did you expect to happen?

The ability to save the graphic to Mega.

It will be very useful to have the possibility to choose a name format for images and videos uploaded from a mobile phone (IOS/Android).

The current file naming format is yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss

But will be nice to have options to choose from several formats like:

1. yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss (2023-03-04 15:00:00.jpg)
2. yyyyMMdd_hhmmss (20230304_150000.jpg)

This issue is applicable to public users only.

What happened?

When we edit the URLs in .gitmodules and run git submodule update --init --recursive, it does not use the new URLs but the original ones. Because public user don't have access to the original URLs, they got errors.

What did you expect to happen?

When we run git submodule update.., it should use the new URLs that we specified in .gitmodules.

Possible solution:

git submodule update.. use .git/config file and not .gitmodules. So the changes we made in .gitmodules need to be reflected in .git/config before we run update command.

We can achieve it by running git submodule sync.

git submodule update.. relies on .git/config file and not .gitmodules. So we need to sync the changes from .gitmodules to .git/config before we run update command.

We can do that by running git submodule sync.

If this finding is correct then updating the README.md file would be helpful for other users who encounter the same issue.

General Information

• MEGA Version: 5.14.1

• iOS Version(s): iPadOS 14.6

• Devices/Simulators: iPad Pro 2021

• Reproducible? (Yes/No): Yes

What happened?

Mega only downloads files to the device while the app is actively in the foreground, regardless that "Background Refresh" in the settings is enabled.
Whenever I switch to another app or the screen turns off the downloads are paused, which makes it impossible to do anything other than wait on the iPad.
When downloading videos or whatever else I do, especially large size files it is very difficult and inconvenient.
Enabling background downloads is a must have, and such a basic functionality that it feels almost stupid to try to explain why we need it.

I have seen from google searches that the issue has been posted in the iOS section around 2017 and since has been closed, yet obviously 5 years later and the application is still affected by the issue.

I am a long-time premium user of Mega.nz cloud service and I encourage you to give this issue the priority it requires.

What did you expect to happen?

That the downloads will continue in the background like on all of the other platforms.

What happened?

If you don't have internet access and you've saved files offline (in my case MP3s), you cannot search for offline files using the search function. Even if you select the "Offline" tab, you cannot search for files. You can only search within a folder where the files are listed.

What did you expect to happen?

Offline search across all files and subdirectories, not just the current directory.

When building this in Xcode I get

mdfind -name LocallizationSystem.h returns no results

The Mega app on iPhone syncs all photos to the cloud which is great however when a photo is deleted from the photos app after it gets uploaded to mega it stays in the cloud and doesn't get deleted.
I hope there can be an option to solve this issue.

The MEGA iOS app only support download files in the foreground. If put MEGA app to background, it will be suspend and the downloading is paused. So I have to set my iPhone never turn off screen and keep MEGA foreground to download somethings. This causes terrible user experience.

I notice that iOS 7+ supports executing Background App Refresh. I think MEGA can add background refresh to download or sync in the background.

I can't connect to MEGA in my iPhone(iOS11) through wifi. But I can use it through 4G connections
And in PC/Mac client, I have to use VPN to log in, but the file sync can run without a VPN connection
I'm a student in China, so the reason might be the GFW or my campus wifi. But it's weird that I can use it through 4G. Could anyone solve my problem?

Currently accessing Mega files from Apple's iOS Files app gives access to Mega files, but only through a custom and limited interface.

This interface is not as easy to use as the default iOS Files app interface and it lacks some functionality, like markup options, that the default iOS Files app interface contains.

I would like to request that Mega fully support iOS Files app integration, a la OneDrive, Dropbox, etc.

If this is not possible due to Mega's encryption, then I would like to request an interface that is made to resemble the default iOS Files app interface with, if possible, markup options.

Thank you.
