"Override Changes" button MUST WARN PEOPLE WHAT IT DOES.

The "Override Changes" button in android provides zero information about what it does.

Override WHAT?
Override WHERE?
What files are being changed how?

This is EXTREMELY dangerous and just nearly cost my partner years of baby photos, I'm shaking.

Duplicate of #1769.

We are aware that this can pose a serious usability issue, as a single miss click can lead to file deletion on the other side, but the app is in maintenance mode, so unless a volunteer steps in and improves the experience, the current state likely won't change in the near future…

There is a confirmation dialog in the Web GUI, but not in the app itself.
