Leave a Review FE File Explorer Pro
Gives your iPad a usable file system
This App turned my iPad Pro into a true laptop replacement! Can’t recommend it enough. Only feature on my wish list is being able to sync files.Mjbsonic
Works great, but some issues
1. When watching movies from a samba share, opening and closing control center causes a spinner to appear for 10-20 seconds (the playback doesn’t resume immediately). Pretty annoying.
2. The controls don’t disappear after a timeout, you have to tap on the video.
3. FTP transfers stall, no resume support. Couldn’t use the app to transfer a 2GB Ubuntu iso to a PC over WiFi, had to use other app.
Pro: supports SMB3Show lessOutragеd
1 thing missing
App is fantastic for accessing (and copying) files over the local network.
I use this app extensively — however there is ZERO keyboard support — I have an iPad Pro, and when you hold down the command key in almost every other App you get a screen that shows keyboard shortcuts — this app doesn’t have them.
I’d LOVE to have the arrow keys — or at least space bar to advance to the next preview of a fileShow lessPhattyMatti
Great App
I’ve been able to manage files very easily with this app. One feature I would like to see is a way to take an iPhone photo album and copy it over to a windows pc as a folder with the same name. That way photos organized on an iPhone keep the same organization on a pc without having to manually create a folder with the same name.Show lessOpt_Prime
Great App
I use this app all the time. It’s great for easily accessing and transferring data/files between computers and your phone (and between two computers). Also very useful to connect it to your google drive and other file storage options. Would highly recommend. It’s completely worth the cost, and worth much more, for how often I use it/how much time it saves me.Show lessAZmudcats5
Clean and simple
I have a NAS at home for file storage and needed to access it from my phone. It was a snap to set up, the interface is clean and intuitive.
I had a question for the developers because I wasn’t seeing hidden files. They responded quickly and pointed me to the individual connection’s settings (not the general app settings, which I guess is nice).
On the iPad I did have a lot of issues where I was scrolling through directories with a large number of folders, and some were disappearing. I realized I must have been touching a folder just right and was dragging and dropping it into another folder instead of scrolling through the directory! Luckily, there’s a setting to disable drag and drop functionality, which I would suggest be made the default setting. You can still move folders through another edit menu, so it’s still possible to move things more “safely” in a touch environment.Show lessmikegfromma
App cannot be fully locked.
Just open the files app and go to on my iPhone and have a look in there. Everything else works amazingly.CSSBoy01
App is absolutely fantastic.
I’ve tried a few Remote Desktop apps in the past but this one is by far the best. It does everything perfectly especially when I want to watch movies from my PC. The stream & download quality is near perfect. I won’t have to mess with Itunes again.
Keep up the great work fellas.JasperAllen
Great utility and great support too
I’ve used FE Pro for several years and it’s been a clean reliable way to get files from my iPhone to Windows 7pro workstation. Ten days ago I installed a Windows update and it broke the file sharing giving only a mysterious error. I emailed FE tech support and was given the exact solution one hour later (a Windows update fixed update). Works great again. Great product with great support. Thanks StevenZ.Show lessMpegger2
Works but
Works well but currently only airplay’s via screen mirror. Don’t won’t my phone to be always on. After 45 minutes of watching movie the iphone was hot using Screen mirroring.
Also can you add a buffering adjustment when streaming wirelessly from router to NAS then wirelessly back to Apple TV can be choppy which is what you would expect when streaming wirelessly but with buffering this would fix the issue.Show lesslozaelec
