I had everyone in the family with an account on it and we all used our mobile devices with it.  IN our case, 
it's iPhones and iPads.  The owncloud installation was treated as a strict server so, we never added files 
through the command line of the very machine they  were stored on.  I started to use the webdav interface 
which looks pretty promising and, at least, doesn'thang the  whole installation whenever you have two or 
three thousand photos and videos to peruse.

Oh, and incidentally, I think their enterprise paid version of OwnCloud may have a few proprietary 
components.  They probably do that thing where they release the source two or three versions later into the 
community version as they keep improving their paid product.

Well, I did the upgrade and they did make some improvements in the accessibility of their web interface, at 
any rate.  I have not tested uploading files, as I usually just add them from the command line.
