  • Great app. Exactly what I was looking for.

    Excellent app, connected to my computer on my home wifi network easily. It's like sitting at my computer and browsing the files and folders from there.
  • The perfect wifi file access app - almost

    It is easy to use and configure. In a few minutes I was able to access ALL my files and folders on WinXP and Linux using existing ID and Passwords. Can view all directories, folder and files as needed. It was intuitive for me as a network technician. I would have given it 5 stars if it provided multiple file xfers and not one file at a time, so it only gets 4.

    CONS: Currently there is not a way to move multiple files at once, each file has to be moved one-by-one. That get tedious when moving 100's of files To and From the iPhone. Also after moving a file from a PC to the iPhone it leaves the users having to re-navigate back to the directory to get the next file, once again a tedious process.

    PROS: User friently interface and easy to understand. Allows access to Windows admin shares that use C$. Can show or hide system files. Supports VPN access to a office or home network. Allows bookmarking of a directory for quick access to commonly used directory. Does NOT require fees for file servers, no Web Browsers needed, no drive mapping to a URL, it just works.

  • Great app

    Awesome app. Does exactly what it says and connected to my NAS within seconds. Would like to see more picture browsing features though like a next and back button.
  • Very Good, but one suggestion

    Very nice app, works very well over VPN connection with many file shares. I am very close to buying full version but I would like to see an 'open with' ability for files, as I would like to be able to open them with an editor like QuickOffice.
  • Sale Outside US

    I come from Hong Kong, after trying the lite version of this software, I want to buy the full version but it's not avaliable in the Hong Kong iTune Store. The US iTune Store does not accecpt my Hong Kong credit card, so plz also put the full version of this program in the Hong Kong store, thx.
  • Version 2.0 fixed my windows 7 shares

    1 bug I found in old version was that shares weren't enumerated With Win7. I had to manually specify them. This version fixed that with no additional configs on my end, it now just works. Thank for the update. I will probably buy the full version for the additional functions.
  • Solid App

    Works well, hoping to see a few more features that would let me make this my only file manager. Other programs allow you to access your iPhones taken/stored photos etc.

    Any and all access to the files on the phone itself (not just Netportals own storage area) would deeply extend the value of the program and be greatly appreciated.

  • Pretty Good

    I've been looking for a functional app that would let me connect from the iPhone to the Mac, via file sharing. I've tried ezShare and FarFinder before this app, and was dissatisfied with both. This app seems to get the job done: Turn on file sharing on Mac, connect to Mac via iPhone, browse/view contents. Done.

    Some comments:

    The picture needs some work; It would be nice to have Previous and Next button functionality when viewing a folder of pictures, as well as have the ability to double tap to zoom in 1:1, and double tap to fit-to-screen.

    The PDF browser should also have double-tap functionality (zoom in/out), but it's nice that it has start and end of document buttons, in addition to the usual next/previous page buttons.

    On the Mac, AFP support would be nice, rather than having to turn on SMB.

    Color scheme/icon design. Not too crazy about this, the icons don't feel very professional, and the user interface colors deviate from the expected iPhone color scheme (example, the first screenshot above, which uses a gray gradient with dark blue headers -- "Bleh," the gray of the vertical index is hard to read against the dark background colors.)

    I'm not sure if these functions are in the full version? Either way, if the PDF and Picture viewer were improved, I'd be happy to purchase the full version. (And I hope this developer is working on an iPad version as well.)
