I use it to receive audio files from a provider and it works well. Wish there was a refresh button to check for new files, but reopening the folder in finder does the trick. ### 4/5 — Update: bug in the app caused read and write problem *2026-04-16* Working with the developer, they determined that there was a bug in the app that was not allowing to read and write with a single server set up. That has been fixed. App now works as intended and seems to be a very useful tool now. Thanks. **Developer response:** Thank you for emailing me about this issue. I was happy to be able to solve it. ### 4/5 — Europäisches Prudukt *2026-04-06* Ich mag Software - in Europa hergestellt und vertrieben. Wenn man für die Pro Version zahlen soll, mache ich das gerne. ### 5/5 — Indispensable! *2026-01-14* This app makes it easy to transfer files from all my cloud instances and media servers to my IPhone and iPad. It is extremely useful and is well worth the cost of the pro version! ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-01-04* I was searching for a very long time and tried a lot of apps but this one is the very best. Easy to use, configurable and seamless integration into the files app on my iPad and iPhone with no compromises. Great stuff! Thank you guys for that app. ### 5/5 — Nice *2025-12-08* ❤️ ### 5/5 — Great support *2025-12-05* I purchased the lifetime license, installed the app on my iPad, and found that it did not display files correctly when connecting to the FTP service in Microsoft Server 2022. I contacted Anders by email; he responded immediately, and within 48 hours released an update that solved the problem. Amazing customer service. I enthusiastically recommend this app! ### 5/5 — Good. *2025-09-28* Many thanks. It is perfectly working for fresh installed iOS 18.7. But there is a few suggestions. Please, add an option to to copy files with their original time stamp. And there is a bug. When you share a photo from the Share Sheet menu, the rename file option does not work properly. **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback. I will look into ways to improve this. ### 5/5 — So güd *2025-08-29* 👌🏾 ### 5/5 — Güd *2025-06-16* 👌🏾 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Love it but….. *2026-08-02* That software is perfect for developers! Easy to manger contact any device for example quick access on iPad sort out then on Mac more work. But that app is not free! Compare other FTP services is secure and free to use. Make me feel disappointed uninstalling app for good. I use free version no problem ### 1/5 — Mal sehen *2026-06-13* Erwarte nicht zu viel von iPhone Anwendungen diese sind nie kostenlos und selten im brauchbaren Umfang freigeschaltet und auch nicht open Source. **Developer response:** Du solltest die App mit einer einzigen Serverkonfiguration kostenlos nutzen können. ### 1/5 — Broke MacOS *2026-05-08* Created a FTP-FTP folder and won't let me delete users **Developer response:** Please contact me at anders@ftpfiles.app and I will do me best to help. App Store apps are installed and managed by the system and it should not be possible for apps to mess with macOS itself. Understanding your circumstances better could help me find a work-around for you and help me file a report to Apple engineers. ### 1/5 — Worthless app without subscription *2026-04-05* App is worthless without paying for the pro upgrade. You can set up, but you can’t read or write anything on FTP so the claim that it works in free mode with one connection is false. You can just see files, not upload or download files. **Developer response:** Thank you for emailing me about this issue. I was happy to be able to solve it. ### 1/5 — False Advertising - Free is Not Free *2026-03-07* Finally got it to connect to my telescope, but when I tried to transfer the data from the telescope to my computer, it pops up a screen listing the things that are included in the “free” and paid versions. Under “free” it has “download and upload from finder.” But up at the top it says “Download is a Pro Feature.” I will not buy from a company that can’t something like that straight. **Developer response:** I'm not sure why you are seeing this, but the reason this is not straight is because some users have infinite number of servers for free and other users have one server for free with the ability to download+upload for free. This changed with version 2026.8 and to avoid taking infinite free servers away from anyone that relied on that, the initial install of the app has to be version 2026.8 or later for users to get free upload+download for a single server. Old and new users get what was promised to them in the app description at the time of original download but the promise has changed. So what you are experiencing is not false advertising, but a complication added in the interest of users. Some kind of glitch has made the app confused about that the original downloaded version was and that is something I would like to improve. Please email me at anders@ftpfiles.app and I will find out why it is confused about this and what to do about it in your case. ### 1/5 — Nul a ne meme pas essayer *2026-02-17* Totalement nul, télécharger est une fonctionnalité pro ### 1/5 — very poor *2025-12-31* there are virtually available for free users ### 1/5 — Nul !!!!! Comme les autres !!!! *2025-09-03* Et encore un achat pour RIEN !. C’est pas compliqué, j’ai un FTP et je veux regarder mes films en ouvrant mon fichier vidéo avec VLC pour la lecture en stream. Je veux pas le télécharger !!!!!!!!!!!! **Developer response:** Sorry to disappoint. There is no mechanism on iOS that allows partial downloads such that a file can be read before it is fully downloaded. Either VLC has to connect to your FTP server or FTP Files has to play the video. It is supported when using FTP Files and VLC on the Mac. ### 1/5 — Problematic and Messy *2025-05-31* Uninstall leaves things stuck on your hard drive. (Check your ~/Library/CloudStorage folder and try and delete the artifact…). Interface is cumbersome as volume is not mounted on your desktop as expected… cannot unmount volume using normal mechanism in the Finder. Has a rough time with self signed certs or expired certs, inhibiting use. **Developer response:** I’m sorry the app does not meet your expectations. It uses the moden mechanism to make Cloud Storage available on Mac as recommended by Apple which puts the files inside $HOME/Library/CloudStorage and this mechanism is becoming increasingly normal. Would like to hear how it has problems with certificates such that I can make improvements. ### 2/5 — pay wall *2026-01-31* hit a paywall when I went to upload files ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — (S)FTP the (on your) Mac way :-) *2026-08-16* A true time saver in your workflows ### 5/5 — Perfekte Funktion direkt im Finder *2026-07-11* Die App funktioniert auf Anhieb. Die Nutzung von FTP direkt im Finder ist sehr viel einfacher als typische spezifische Standalone FTP-Apps wie zum Beispiel Filezilla. Danke für die tolle Arbeit. ### 5/5 — So güd *2026-07-03* 👌🏾 ### 5/5 — Responsive developer, super helpful app! *2026-06-24* Well worth the price. I had an issue with syncing on iOS and the developer immediately responded, patched the issue, and had an update posted within days (thanks to Apple delays, not theirs!). ### 5/5 — Funktional *2026-06-14* Es mach was es soll, darum kann ich es empfehlen. ### 5/5 — Excellent for Shortcuts! *2026-05-31* Does exactly what it says, giving easy access to FTP from Files and Finder, but the real thing I’ve found useful are the Shortcuts actions: now I can automate file uploads and downloads for lots of things I have to commonly do. And the app is being actively developed! ### 5/5 — Eingerichtet und läuft und läuft *2026-05-02* Nach der Einrichtung der FTP App hat sich mein persönlicher Cloud Zugang perfekt in der App Dateien integriert und ist damit überall verfügbar. Völlig easy. UND, wenn tatsächlich mal Fragen o. Probleme auftauchen gibt’s einen Support, der sich kümmert und funktioniert. ### 5/5 — The best *2026-04-06* This’s the best FTP app ### 5/5 — Gelungene FilesManager/Dateien-Einbindung *2026-03-29* Die direkte Einbindung in den File Manager unter macOS bzw. die App Dateien unter iOS ist ein großer Vorteil. Jeweils nach dem Aufbau einer SFTP-Verbindung. ### 5/5 — 太喜欢了 *2026-02-11* 开发的app除了s3都买了。太好用了，爱死了，多开发点app --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
