Google Stifles Competition: Nextcloud Android App Upload Restrictions
2025-05-14

Nextcloud's Android app upload functionality is severely limited by Google, allowing only photo and video uploads. Google revoked a critical permission, citing security concerns, but Nextcloud believes this is a deliberate attempt to stifle competition. Despite appeals, Google refuses to reinstate the permission, impacting millions of users. Nextcloud argues this exemplifies Big Tech's abuse of platform power to suppress competitors and calls for stronger regulation.
