AnExplorer does not support Sync.com as a native cloud connection. Sync.com uses a proprietary encrypted protocol and does not expose a WebDAV or FTP endpoint — so AnExplorer cannot browse Sync.com files the same way it browses pCloud or Dropbox.
About Sync.com
Sync.com is a Canadian cloud storage service, founded in 2011, positioning itself on privacy and security:
- Zero-knowledge encryption by default — unlike pCloud (where Crypto is an optional add-on), zero-knowledge encryption is applied to all files on all plans
- Canadian servers — data stored in Canada, subject to Canadian PIPEDA privacy law rather than US CLOUD Act
- HIPAA compliant — Business and Enterprise plans meet HIPAA requirements for healthcare organizations
- 5 GB free, paid plans from 200 GB to 6 TB
End-to-end zero-knowledge encryption means Sync.com cannot see your files or filenames. This is a strong privacy guarantee but it comes with a trade-off: no WebDAV access is possible because WebDAV would require Sync.com servers to be able to read file metadata plaintext.
Using Sync.com Alongside AnExplorer
Without native integration, here are the practical options:
Option 1: Download from Sync.com App, Manage with AnExplorer
- Install the Sync.com Android app
- Download files to your device storage
- Files land in your Downloads folder — AnExplorer can manage them from there
- Move files to NAS, FTP server, or another cloud
Option 2: Use Sync.com Web Vault in Browser
Sync.com has a web vault at sync.com. Download files from the browser; they appear in Downloads where AnExplorer can pick them up.
Privacy-Focused Clouds That Connect Directly to AnExplorer
If zero-knowledge or privacy-first cloud storage is your priority and you want it integrated in AnExplorer's sidebar:
| Cloud | Privacy | AnExplorer Support | Free | Zero-knowledge |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| pCloud | Swiss HQ, EU servers | ✅ native | 10 GB | Optional (Crypto add-on) |
| Koofr | EU (Slovenia), GDPR | ✅ via WebDAV | 10 GB | No |
| Box | HIPAA/SOC2 compliant | ✅ native | 10 GB | No |
| Sync.com | Canadian, PIPEDA | ❌ | 5 GB | ✅ (all plans) |
| MEGA | Luxembourg, E2E | ✅ native | 20 GB | ✅ (all files) |
For users who need zero-knowledge encryption with a file manager integration, pCloud with the Crypto add-on is the closest available option with AnExplorer support.
