First of all make sure you have updated to and tried with the latest available versions of both, this app and the [Notes server app](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/notes).
-In case you receive a `NextcloudApiNotRespondingException`, try to disable the battery optimization for both apps.
-In all other cases please try to clear the storage of **both** apps, Nextcloud Android **and** Nextcloud Notes Android.
+### `NextcloudApiNotRespondingException`
+
+Try to disable the battery "optimization" for both apps. Some manufacturers prevent the app from communicating with the Nextcloud Android properly.
+This is a [known issue of the SingleSignOn mechanism](https://github.com/nextcloud/Android-SingleSignOn#troubleshooting) which we only can work around but not solve on our side.
+
+### `UnknownErrorException: Read timed out`
+
+This issue is caused by a connection time out. This can be the case if there are infrastructural or environmental problems (like a misconfigured server or a bad network connection).
+Probably you will experience it when importing an account, because at this moment, all your Notes will getting downloaded at once. Given you have a lots of notes, this might take longer than the connection is available.
+Further synchronizations are usually not causing this issue, because the Notes app tries to synchronize only *changed* notes after the first import.
+If your notes are not ten thousands of characters long, it is very unlikely that this causes a connection timeout.
+
+We plan to improve the import of an account and make it more reliable by [fetching notes step by step](https://github.com/stefan-niedermann/nextcloud-notes/issues/761#issuecomment-836989421) in a future release.
+Until then you can as a workaround for the first import try to
+1. move all your notes to a different folder on your Nextcloud instance
+2. import your account on your smartphone
+3. put your notes back to the original folder step by step and sync everytime you put some notes back
+
+### `NextcloudFilesAppAccountNotFoundException`
+
+We are not yet sure what exactly causes this issue, but investigate it by [adding more debug logs to recent versions](https://github.com/stefan-niedermann/nextcloud-notes/issues/1256#issuecomment-859505153). In theory this might happen if an already imported account has been deleted in the Nextcloud app.
+As a workaround you can remove the account (or clear the storage of the app as described below if you can't access the account manager anymore) and import it again.
+
+### `TokenMismatchException` and all others
+
+In all other cases please try to clear the storage of **both** apps, Nextcloud Android **and** Nextcloud Notes Android. Not yet synchronized changes will be lost by performing this step.
You can achieve this by navigating to

- ↳ Nextcloud / Notes

Then set up your account in the Nextcloud Android app again and import the configured account in the Nextcloud Notes Android app.
