So far so good.

Downloaded the app yesterday, and it was easy to setup and stream video from my phone to Apple TV. It has not disconnected once in 24 hours. Great work from the developer. The free version works great, but I paid the $5 for pro to support.

Amazed

Like others have mentioned - I’ve never been one to bother leaving reviews on the “app stores”. However, I feel that the absolutely amazing experience I’ve had with PocketServer warrants this review.

After struggling to find the solution to some file management/sharing requirements of my homelab I managed to find a reference to PocketServer on a Reddit post. I’m so incredibly thankful that I did.

PocketServer delivers on every single advertised feature and the ease of use is mindblowing. Will recommend to other nerdy friends.

Amazing

I’m the type to never write reviews unless it’s a phenomenal job, and oh my god this app saved me hundreds of hours of file access and downloads. This smooth integration to host your own server is absolutely amazing and the download speed is good too, overall thank you for making this app.
