## Getting help :rescue\_worker\_helmet:
Note: The section *Known Problems / FAQs* below may already document your situation.
If you need assistance or want to ask a question about the Android app, you are welcome to [ask for support](https://help.nextcloud.com/c/clients/android) in the [Nextcloud Help Forum](https://help.nextcloud.com). If you have found a probable bug or have an enhancement idea, feel free to [open a new Issue on GitHub](https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues).
If you're not sure if something is a bug or a configuration matter (with your client, server, proxy, etc.), the [Nextcloud Help Forum](https://help.nextcloud.com) is probably the best place to start so that you can get feedback (you can always return here, after getting feedback there, to report a suspected bug).
Keep in mind, that this repository only manages the Android app. If you find bugs or have problems with the server/backend, you should use the Nextcloud Help Forum to ask for help or report the bug to the [Nextcloud server team](https://github.com/nextcloud/server)!
