Can anyone tell me if it's possible to upload a folder using the Android version of the OneDrive app, or if it's possible to upload all the files in a folder? I can't see how to do either.

I think it might be phone-dependant, as the upload button tends to refer you to your phones' own file management screen to choose files etc for upload...

As a workaround, you could try using ES File Explorer from the Play Store. It's a separate file management app that can be linked to OneDrive (and others) so that you can, for example, copy a directory from the device memory to your OneDrive space.

I tried that, but for some reason it wouldn't connect to the OneDrive server. The error message was something like "Unable to connect to server - try again later" but the error never goes away, I tried repeatedly for 30 mins without success.

In the end, I copied all the folders and files I wanted to upload into a temp folder on my PC, which I was then able to drag and drop onto the OneDrive.
