The main issue on mobile is to make an HTTPS request without validating the certificate or finding a way to make the Syncthing self-signed certificate trusted by the device.

It seems that there is no API for making such calls within Obsidian. So, the second idea is to make the certificate trusted by the Syncthing app itself.

This issue is strongly related to #102

I'm seeing the same on iOS, before digging in further, is there even a chance that this would work on iOS?

Love that this plugin exists btw, would be really cool if we could make it work on iOS since there isn't another way to sync with Syncthing it seems.

@tobiasb the plugin should work as fine as on Android if you have a Syncthing iOS app exposing the Syncthing REST API.
This issue is evolving to more the HTTPS certificate issue (#102) on mobile as it is harder to trust a certificate than on desktop.

I don't have any Apple device so I can't test the plugin on these platforms.
Please test it and provide feedback by opening an issue specific for iOS.
Thx !
