Synchronization Troubleshooting Web App - Documentation incorrect?

Support - Assistance technique

I am following the instructions for the:
Synchronization Troubleshooting Web App

in the user documentation:

https://docs.dhis2.org/en/use/android-app/android-web-apps/synchronization-troubleshooting.html?h=

The instruction clearly indicates “A user can easily install the Synchronization Troubleshooting Web App” but screenshots show the “APK Distribution” app icon twice (which I understand is a different app):

In any case the “Synchronization Troubleshooting” screen cannot be reached through the “APK Distribution” app.

When I search the apps for “Synchronization Troubleshooting” I find this app:

The instruction for “Uninstall the app” shows the “APK Distribution” app again twice:

Is there a mixup in the documentation or am I missing something?

Will this app also report any synchronisation errors from mobile devices or only from the web app?

Thank you @George_McGuire for your post! Your question has been triaged to the @dhis2-android team… meanwhile, I’m pretty sure that the intended app is the Synchronization Troubleshooting app in the screenshot below:

Hi @George_McGuire

Thanks a lot for catching this. We’ve corrected the links in the documentation, and also many thanks to @Gassim for jumping in with the correct link in the meantime.

Will this app also report any synchronisation errors from mobile devices or only from the web app?

The app reports synchronization errors from both the web app and from Android devices.
