User Reviews: FTP Client Pro

Top reviews

  • Works great

    Really like the thumbnail functionality for viewing images. Thanks!
  • More than an ftp client!

    More like finder. Better even! Not only transfers files between your device and a remote host ( and other ftp commands) but also views nearly anything (renders html ) and edits them too (can be used to maintain web site - totally), zips/unzips files, exports them to airdrop, mail, photo album, iCloud. Very well thought out, easy to use, minimum required host setup saved and modifiable between sessions. For frequent ( picky ) users, settings provide great flexibility, embedded help and explanations very understandable. Author is very responsive in case you can manage to come up with something that is not already explained. Log shows what happened incase the remote host is being difficult.
  • Good FTP App

    Way better than that ripoff FTP on The Go. I paid $10 for that app then got asked to pay $10 again when they updated it for the new iOS with no new features. My old version still functions, they just disabled features that worked perfectly fine even on the new iOS until they crippled it themselves just to charge more money.

    I like this client way better because the of the cost and the better functionality.

    My only 1 complaint so far is that there's no way to set a default directory to start in for the remote FTP server. I'd like to not have to navigate through a bunch of directories every time just to get where I want to be. People keep saying that I should just change the server's default directory but in my case I don't own/operate the server in question.
  • Best FTP Client App !!!

    A user for Life Here ! This App is definitely the Best FTP Server Client out there. I got my own FTP Server at the Office where I keep all my Sales, RMAs, Shipping Docs, etc, and pretty much anything related to my Business: G3 Corporation. I've been using this app for over 4 years now, I have had nothing but a Great Experience with it, saving me about an 1 hour or 2 everyday ! I don't have to use the computer anymore to upload Invoices, Product Pictures, Shipping Labels, etc., everything is done from my iPhone or iPad. I highly recommend using this App ! And thank you to the developers for the Continuos Support and Development ! Keep up the great work guys 👌🏼
  • Program is a winner; support is phenomenal

    I jumped right in and got the Pro version. I had issues logging on to an SSH secure server, so I emailed the developer. He responded almost instantly to my complaint. We exchanged a couple emails and he set out to solve the problem. Solve it he did! I don't think the guy sleeps. He sent me a trial of a newly developed version, that would work for me until the new version was published at Apple. Worked perfectly. Then, I started putting the app through its paces, trying every feature that I knew I would need. All worked flawlessly. This is a great ftp client app for the Ipad, whether you want to upload files or photos, download files or photos, edit them on the server, or just view them. I'd give it 10 stars if I could.
  • Simple, Reliable FTP App

    In a nutshell...great program, works really well, and I highly recommend it. Supports all the usual protocols and encryption methods. From plain FTP to using explicit FTP over TLS.

    I use this app on my iPhone 6 Plus for work and personal file transfers. I initially downloaded the Lite version and was very impressed. When I find a good app that makes my life easier, I have no problem supporting the developer. I bought the Pro version because I really like this app. It works well, is simple to use, easy navigation, and the interface is user friendly. You can save multiple account settings with bookmarks. Also, the app supports Apple's fingerprint scan security when you launch it, in case you want to use that option. I like the extra security in case I misplace my phone.

    I emailed the developer with a question and was surprised I got such a quick reply! That is a rarity with apps in this price range. If you're on the fence about purchasing, just do it. It will make transferring files from your mobile device a breeze. I use this several times a day, so I know it works well. I've recommended this app to several tech friends, and they've had the same good experience. Well done!
  • Indispensable!

    FTP Client Pro serves as the hub of my cloud storage management. It not only exchanges files both directions with FTP servers, but also handles exchanges both directions with Dropbox. It manages file organization locally, including folder creation, moving things around, and renaming. I can use it to rename Dropbox files (a shortcoming in the Dropbox app) by downloading to FTP Client Pro, changing the name, and then uploading. It creates and unpacks zip archives (it will only create an archive with a one-tier folder system, but will unpack any archive). It provides a text editor which includes a special always-visible keyboard bar with common keyboard symbols (including the tab!), search facilities and other features that standard iOS editors do not usually have. Tech-support encourages suggestions and responds well. Is it perfect? No. However, it's better than most five-star apps that I've seen, and is indispensable for many of the file transfer AND manipulation operations that I need to do on a regular basis.
  • 'Great Support' really good FTP app. with new features.

    It's always good to have good support and the developer for this program has support as good as it can get. With the new update the developer, 'Anders' sent an email with a note that a suggestion I made 4 months ago was included in this version. That suggestion was to add a feature that gives you the link address for anything you upload to FTP. With that feature you can upload a webpage, photo or anything else and instantly get the complete link address so you can include the link in an email, forum or any other use. I don't think any other FTP application in the store has that really useful feature.

    I purchased the app to use as the Ipad version of the ftp app I use on the Mac. It does what I need and more. I use it with my NAS and my ftp domains and now with new Dropbox connecting I'm finding It more invaluable then ever.

    Only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is to help encourage continued development and support (humor attempt).
  • Outstanding app and even better support

    I first installed this app over a weekend. I was impressed with the ease of use, interface features and the connection quality. I was sold on the app at that point. I did notice though that the app didn't seem to be saving bookmarks of my various FTP servers. I sent in the report and was impressed with a response--on the weekend. The response indicated exactly what the problem was and that the fix would be in the next upcoming release. Not only was this accurate and on time, I also got a follow up email tell me the release was available! Professionalism like this is rarely found, but Anders and his team have it.
  • Super Utility Just Got Better

    Nothing better than an app that allows you to do your task better/faster/easier. I manage 12 sites and possess limited programming knowledge. FTP Client Pro makes it possible to accomplish complex editing tasks on the road from my iPhone and iPad.

    With synced bookmarks and Dropbox integration, any change I create on one device is immediately available on the other. Not that I want to be editing PHP or CSS3 on my iPhone, but if I have to, I can.

    And with Dropbox, any file I alter or if I want to save the original before the change, it is saved and I can pull it down on my desktop or iPad/iPhone.

    Lots of interface and interaction customization choices through finger swipe switch buttons.

    Fast interface response. Fast server connections. Excellent user interface experience. Packs a ton of function in a light-weight package.

    Another small but key feature on a portable device, you may password protect access to FTP Client Pro.

    Excellent value for anyone who needs to dig behind the scenes of their site whether it is hosted at home or at some giant ISP.
