What is Koofr?

Koofr's rebuilt iOS 4.0 with native Files integration is its best shot at mainstream mobile relevance

Koofr is a privacy-focused cloud storage service that ships at a slow but deliberate cadence. The defining move of this period was the completely rebuilt iOS 4.0 app with native Apple Files integration — Koofr storage now appears and behaves like iCloud Drive within the iOS Files picker, with automatic background photo backup added as a second headline feature. Post-launch additions (document scanning, browser extension bulk-image saving) are competent capability fills. Two service incidents in six months — a DDoS in April and a connectivity issue in September — are an operational note without product implications.

What is Wiki.js?

Wiki.js 3.0 beta accelerates with enterprise auth (Entra, LDAP, SAML) and audit logging.

Wiki.js is in active v3.0 beta development, shipping multiple builds per week. The September builds add enterprise SSO coverage (Entra ID, LDAP, SAML, Discord, GitHub, Google with group mapping), an audit log, admin metrics, draw.io diagram embedding, and user public profiles. The v2.5 branch receives security-only patches in parallel.

Koofr's rebuilt iOS 4.0 with native Files integration is its best shot at mainstream mobile relevance

◆ Current state

Koofr is a privacy-focused cloud storage service that ships at a slow but deliberate cadence. The defining move of this period was the completely rebuilt iOS 4.0 app with native Apple Files integration — Koofr storage now appears and behaves like iCloud Drive within the iOS Files picker, with automatic background photo backup added as a second headline feature. Post-launch additions (document scanning, browser extension bulk-image saving) are competent capability fills. Two service incidents in six months — a DDoS in April and a connectivity issue in September — are an operational note without product implications.

◆ Where it's heading

Koofr is doubling down on native mobile integration rather than web or cross-platform expansion. The iOS 4.0 rewrite, Files integration, document scanning, and background backup are all iOS-first moves. There is no signal of comparable Android investment or web-app parity work in this changelog. The trajectory positions Koofr as a privacy-respecting alternative to iCloud for iOS users, with the Files integration as the primary stickiness lever.

◆ Prediction

The natural follow-on from iOS Files integration is iOS Shortcuts support and possibly a Lock Screen widget — features that make Koofr a power-user option on iPhone without requiring users to leave their existing workflows. An Android parity release at similar scope is plausible within 12 months if the iOS momentum validates.

6.3

Wiki.js 3.0 beta accelerates with enterprise auth (Entra, LDAP, SAML) and audit logging.

◆ Current state

Wiki.js is in active v3.0 beta development, shipping multiple builds per week. The September builds add enterprise SSO coverage (Entra ID, LDAP, SAML, Discord, GitHub, Google with group mapping), an audit log, admin metrics, draw.io diagram embedding, and user public profiles. The v2.5 branch receives security-only patches in parallel.

◆ Where it's heading

v3.0 is shaping up as a ground-up enterprise re-architecture of the platform. The auth module expansion — Entra, LDAP, SAML, OAuth social all landing in the same beta sprint — signals the team is targeting regulated enterprise environments that v2.x lost to Confluence and Notion due to inadequate SSO support. Audit log and metrics are the governance layer those environments require.

◆ Prediction

v3.0 RC likely within two to three months, followed by an extended stabilization period before GA; the 2.5 branch will receive security patches until v3.0 GA, then go into maintenance-only mode.
