### 5/5 — Best file transfer app for using non Apple devices

*2024-09-20*

File transfer from iPhone to Windows is so easy with this

### 5/5 — Good APP

*2024-08-18*

Probably the best FTP server on iOS👍

### 5/5 — Tiny yet Powerful

*2024-04-21*

Thank you. I was searching for this kind of app for weeks. The interface is shockingly simple and does what an highly paid app does. Moral of the Story - An app can be more effective, useful with tiny size if  a Developer intends to do like that.

### 5/5 — http 지원 계획은 없나요??

*2024-02-18*

ftp만 사용 가능 하다면 최고의 앱입니다.
다만 ftp 프로그램을 쓸수 없는 상황하에서 http까지 지원 된다면 좋을거 같습니다

### 5/5 — How to use iproxy and ftp client.

*2024-01-30*

How to use iproxy forward 2121 to localhost port，and use filezilla to connect goftp server?
I use filezilla prompt the data connection could not  be established

### 5/5 — Macht exakt was beworben wurde

*2023-10-28*

Macht exakt was die Beschreibung sagt. Ein extrem kleiner (1 MB) FTP Server, auf dem man anonym zugreifen kann, und den man in der App selbst schnell ein und ausschalten kann. Datentransfer liegt bei ungefähr 50-60 MB Sekunde. Einziger Verbesserungsvorschlag wäre die Oberfläche auch für Tablets anzupassen, aktuell nutzt sie nur die kleinere Telefon-Ansicht. Da ist der Funktion aber keinerlei Abbruch tut, trotzdem fünf Sterne 👍

### 5/5 — Excellent utility.

*2023-09-09*

Does the job perfectly. I use midnight commander ‘mc’ on my Linux devices including my phones, tablets and Raspberry Pi for to and fro data transfer. I have but I don’t like to use my MacBooks on a day to day basis and I hate to use an app for everything especially something as bloated as iTunes for something done so efficiently in Unix like machines.

### 5/5 — Really Works!!

*2023-09-04*

I am truly surprised! It truly really works. Of all the frp apps i tried this one eorked on first go. Great App. Great development of wonderfully intuitive app. No instructions needed. 
Great! Great! Great!

### 5/5 — Simplicity

*2023-05-01*

Very easy to use, clear, clean and concise. Backed up my app data from the iPad to Linux first go, all 10gb (4hrs on my routers speed tho ;). This app works and does what 12 other apps and 2 OS’s couldn’t do!

### 5/5 — Fantastic 💯

*2023-02-04*

Nice Application Only With 1 Mb You Nailed It.

### 5/5 — Lightweight, easy to use app!

*2022-12-24*

Thank you for your contribution. This app is really easy to use and only takes 1mb. Amazing!

I met a problem which the file couldn’t be transferred when the file name contained Chinese or Japanese characters. I’ve googled this issue and it said the reason could be related to UTF-8. Could you fix it?

Once again, thank you so much for your great app!

### 5/5 — Where is the folder in “Files”?

*2022-12-16*

Update:

Restart your phone to see the GoFTP folder in the native files app. This is the simplest and best functioning ftp server app for iPhone. Thank you!

### 5/5 — nice

*2022-12-05*

nice app for ios to pc connection

### 1/5 — Don't buy it !!!!!!!!

*2025-09-14*

Be aware, the apps doesn't work and it's not refundable.
You lose your time and $$

**Developer response:** Please make sure your firewall isn't blocking the connection. You might also want to try connecting with a different FTP client.

### 1/5 — 只读

*2024-04-19*

太垃圾了，就是个只读的ftp服务器，有个锤子用

**Developer response:** This FTP server provides both read and write access. If writing does not work, please try using another FTP client. Some FTP clients, especially those built into web browsers or operating systems, do not support writing via the FTP protocol.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-09-09, version 1.0.1*

Can’t get anything to connect to the server, and can’t find the shared folder in the files app to put files into even if I could connect.

### 1/5 — Too simple

*2022-09-04*

Could not work…

**Developer response:** Please check that the connection is not blocked by any firewall.

### 2/5 — Not recommended

*2023-07-01, version 1.0.1*

I can connect but read only using finder and connect to server. Overall its a crap

### 3/5 — No option to change the ip address

*2025-05-29*

There should be some option to change the IP address. It is not allowing the user to change it.

### 3/5 — Can not use, what is the username/pwd?

*2024-04-21*

This app looks promising: simple and functional with a single problem: when trying to cnnect from remote linux ftp client, server asks for a username and password. How can I set those?

### 4/5 — 超过2gb的文件不能上传

*2025-03-11*

我尝试过，小文件可以正常上传，但是超过2gb的就会失败

### 5/5 — Underrated Gem

*2026-08-10*

Simple to use, and compatible with older iOS versions. If you want to use an old iPhone like a wireless storage flash drive, this app gets the job done brilliantly.

### 5/5 — Funktioniert wie beschrieben

*2026-06-04*

Klasse!

## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — 好用

*2026-03-09*

用户名和密码无法保存，希望能有这个功能 。

### 5/5 — Very useful!

*2026-02-02*

It’s a great app to transfer photos from camera outdoors.
Maybe if it can show the logs in the settings label will much better!!!

### 5/5 — Hope

*2025-11-19*

I think it would be better to utilize if GoFTP SERVER app always keeps the screen while FTP server is enabled. Now, the screen is in standby mode while enabled.

### 5/5 — Exactly what you want

*2025-10-05*

A clean, dead-simple ftp server so you can transfer files. No complicated nonsense to cause mischief. It just works.

### 5/5 — Powerful and Useful Little Server

*2025-08-22*

Allows me to transfer files (using FTP) between my laptop and iPhone even though the application is tiny!  I get to interact with the file manager on my GNU/Linux laptop which is happy to fulfill the role of FTP client.

### 5/5 — Works great!

*2025-05-03, version 1.0.1*

It is simple, not using much of the phone resources. Use proper ftp client like total cmd on win or FTPManager on iOS and it does the job. To access your files go to the app ‘Files’ -> ‘On my phone’ -> ‘GoFTP’.

### 5/5 — Need other app too

*2025-03-31*

pls make a ftp client app too.

### 5/5 — EZXELLENT  !!

*2025-03-15*

EXCELLENT  !!
