longer works
Classification: Applications
Product: kdeconnect
Version: unspecified

OS: iPadOS
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: ios-application

SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See

***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Pairing between the iPad 6th generation and anything else becomes obsolete
when the app on the iPad is started. Delete the old pair and create and new
pair.
2. Initiate transfer to iPad 6th generation running iOS_16.5. From Kubuntu
22.04_LTS, openSUSE Tumbleweed, or iPhone 11 iOS_16.5. The sender does not
matter. Result is always the same. Nothing happens.
3.
OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens on the iPad. In Kubuntu or openSUSE, the notification is
"Sending to iPad." Nothing happens on the iPhone when sending to the iPad.
EXPECTED RESULT
Expecting a file to arrive on the iPad in the KDE Connect folder, which is now
missing since the latest Apple update to iOS_16.5. I am unable to manually
create this folder in the Files app, figuring the missing folder might be the
problem.

Has iOS ever been able to send a file?
The iPad is still able to remotely control the mouse and keyboard once a new
pair is established.
This started with the latest security update from Apple. Before that latest
update, file transfers to the iPad worked as intended.
I have deleted the app from the iPad and rebooted it before doing a new
install. No changes.
On the iPad in the Files app, getting more info for the home folder, the size
is zero bytes for 2 items. One item is shown the downloads folder for the Brave
browser. If I try to create a new "KDE Connect" folder, I get a notification
informing me that the name is already taken. At the bottom of the screen, I am
informed only one item exits.
On the same iPad in the files app, when I type KDE into the search box, I get
two folders named "KDE Connect" on my iPad. One is overlaid with the KDE icon.
