Absolutely great app! You can select multiple folders for a single user, a feature other apps don't have. Only minor gripes: (i) the app doesn't support landscape orientation, and (ii) the app doesn't handle system-wide font scaling well; a bunch of text gets cut off.
Awesome works exactly as stated and allows multiple user accounts, only feature I'd love to see is a statistics page for when and what is accessed that would be cool maybe also an all storage remaining window to. If you added the ability to play music and stream your movies as well as download would be amazing further still
Excellent app for decice to device ftp. Stable connections mean that you can be sure that the server will be up as long as the device is on. And well implemented user profiles make accessing exactly what you need easy and fast. I highly recommend this app.
FTP functions fine even behind a firewall and is stable. Haven't tried FTPS yet. Reasonable footprint. Like multiple-user feature. More settings than other FTP apps I considered. Eliminates cable for file transfer between devices. On PC, access phone files either through browser or FileZilla client. Developer appears helpful.
The application is fairly easy to use on a TV. My complaint is that files get corrupted transferring to/from. Specifically images. I use FileZilla and have never had this issue before.
Didn't realize this was a FTP server and not a Client. But the app is set up well and has a very clear User interface.
It was a little tricky to figure out setting up on my Nvidia Shield but works great once it's configured. Plugging a KB/Mouse into my Shield made it much easier.
Faster than using the Wifi https transfer apps I have and faster than using bluetooth to transfer files. 2 👍👍 up!
Just purchased. Doesn't work with nvidia shield tv. Access path selection screen doesn't work with remote.
with a previous version, it worked like a charm, but this install is no working and the repeated requests for help, goes nowhere ... to bad
Looking got help getting back my global ip address. It used to work. I'm using it on Nvidia shield. It works fine on home network but need it other places.
This has to be the best FTP server for Android without question. Great job.
i run this app in airtel sim, and connect my laptop with jio sim by hotspot and i try to open this by filezilla in my laptop its not open why its not open in file zilla or what i m doing wrrong.. i want my money back plz
Easy connection to my PC from my phone (local network).
The app is not properly working!
just bought it and doesn't work with my sony bravia android tv...
It supports Tasker! Working greatly!
Nice application Please add client settings as well
haven't had any issues at works
i bought this app on my android tv now its asking me to buy the app again whats wrong with your service
Best FTP server I've used on Android. Recommended.
I have already purchased it in past and now had to repurchase
Was working great but when I upgraded it to the latest version. I could no longer transfer files. I uninstalled it and reinstalled. I could then transfer files but found that it was not listing files correctly. Only recently transferred files are would be listed partially. Some file types are shown but not others. Listing files works fine when using SSH Server by this company but sadly the transfer speed is about half of what I get when using this app. Hopefully these issues will be fixed.
Perfect FTP server for Android. Within seconds one may configure an user account, and what is the most significant thing: EXACT ACCESS TO STORAGE. I've tried several servers, but here choosing between internal storage or external SD Card causes no problems. Finally I may quickly download photos and upload music to my device, without using scripts in Termux!
