 If you don't mind spending a few bucks and want a more comfortable setup of your CalDAV/CardDAV setup on Android I can recommend the app [[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=at.bitfire.davdroid|DAVx⁵]] (formerly DAVdroid). Just one app for Calendar and contacts, even tasks if you want. Just use your NextCloud username and password ad give <code>https://<your.cloud.url>/remote.php/dav</code> as base URL. [[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=at.bitfire.davdroid|DAVx⁵]] will discover everything else automatically. You just have to tell it which address books and calendars to synchronize and you are done. If you don't mind spending a few bucks and want a more comfortable setup of your CalDAV/CardDAV setup on Android I can recommend the app [[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=at.bitfire.davdroid|DAVx⁵]] (formerly DAVdroid).
