User reviews:

"This app is easy to use and works as advertised. And the devs rock. They responded quickly to my question and even helped me troubleshoot a problem with my Mac that was unrelated to the app. You can't go wrong with this purchase. Highly recommended!"

"Since this started supporting sftp, I use it all the time in my IT work. Very handy and works well."

"This makes editing and adding pages super easy. I'm really happy with the stability and the ability to maintain a connection while working with content from other apps. No problems and only good experiences. Thanks for a solid app!"

"Nice, clean app for transferring files and updating HTML and CSS. The editor is nice and easy to use, common symbols very quickly accessed. Support responded quickly and was very helpful at helping me set everything up right."

"I've been looking for a simple/complete file transfer app so that I can securely put and get files between my iPad and PC. I wish I had tried this before all of the other train wrecks! Great job on the app!!"

### 5/5 — Incomparable!

*2026-05-18, version 3.2.1*

1. I use this app more than any other except maybe YouTube
2. It has been on all six of my iPads
3. If not for this app I would not have the website I do today
4. I have compared other apps for both iOS and Android and even desktop apps, none come close
5. It's just amazing!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore

*2025-12-30, version 3.2.1*

I upgraded from lute to Pro. Then everything stopped working. No response at all from developers. Very poor show. Will contact Apple for a refund

### 1/5 — Wont connect

*2025-12-28, version 3.2.1*

Just stays stuck on “connecting” and doesnt go further

### 5/5 — Already love it

*2025-12-20, version 3.2.1*

I've tried different ftp and code editors and always ended up frustrated. So, I canned the idea of any updates using my iPhone.
Thought I'd give the world another chance and stumbled across FTP Client Pro. Reviews were old but other review sites gave it praise.
So, what the heck it's only $5, I'll give it a try.
Holy frig! So easy to connect to my server, edit, save (uploads the change immediately) and voila our website was updated!
Definitely worth a measly $5!! Love it!

### 1/5 — mittlerweile nicht mehr up to date

*2025-10-07*

Guten Tag...

die App hat ein paar Jahre gute Dienste geleistet, jedoch ist ihr deutlich anzumerken, das sie nicht mehr aktualisiert wird.
SFTP Verbindungen funktionieren je nach Host noch, andere hingegen verweigern den Dienst. Heute dafür noch Geld auszugeben macht m.M.n. keinen Sinn. Hier sollte der Entwickler entweder nachlegen oder die App aus dem Store nehmen...

### 3/5 — UGREEN NAS がFTPSで繋がらない

*2025-09-09*

FTPだと繋がります。NAS側をFTPSにするとClient ProをFTPSにしても繋がらないです。

### 1/5 — Terrible Key Management UX

*2024-11-20, version 3.2.1*

One of the worst key management interfaces imaginable. Can I just import a private key? No. OK so can we create a new file? Sure, but you can’t edit it and hence useless. Where is this .privatekeys located? It’s not made obvious. Terrible app.

### 2/5 — Great app when it works

*2024-10-22*

As the title says, when it works it is a great app. Have been using the paid version for several years. But some time ago I lost the ability to connect to my server. And since then it has been an app wasting real estate on my phone. Tried to contact the developer by mail but no reply so far.
Luckily I was able to find a free alternative in the app store with more an better functionality.

### 5/5 — Absolutely awesome app!!!!

*2024-06-11, version 3.2.1*

I love everything about it, first time usage… boom it’s setup in seconds without any weird go backs and redos. I like the fact I can shoot sports or any commercial stuff and upload to my server to download and edit… request for two things! 1. Automated time backup of a folder on the so example I uploaded 10 files to a “volley” folder… 5-10 seconds later this software uploads all the images from the volley to the server folder.  #2. TAGGING! Please add at least basic (title/headline - description, category and creator/photographer). This gives us commercial shooters a way to tag the images for our agencies or editors. That’s about it. Everything else is beat mode!

### 5/5 — Robust and easy to use

*2024-03-25, version 3.2.1*

I’ve used this app now for many years and it has and still does serve me well. Copying entire structures is easy and fast. Transferring huge amounts of files and folders reliably.
