RemoteDisk
Read full descriptionHide full description
RemoteDisk turns any S3-compatible bucket or SFTP server into a native drive inside the iOS Files app. Browse, open, edit, and share your remote files from any app that supports Files ā no separate viewer, no copy-paste workflow. Built natively for iOS 17+ with SwiftUI and Apple's File Provider framework, RemoteDisk feels like iCloud Drive for your own storage. ā SUPPORTED BACKENDS ā ⢠Amazon S3 ⢠Cloudflare R2 ⢠Backblaze B2 ⢠DigitalOcean Spaces ⢠MinIO (self-hosted) ⢠Wasabi, Storj, and any S3-compatible endpoint ⢠SFTP servers (password authentication) ā FILES APP INTEGRATION ā Every connection appears as a drive in the Files app. Tap a file to stream it, long-press to pin it offline, or drag it between connections. Works with Preview, Markup, Quick Look, and every third-party app that reads from Files. ā SMART SYNC ā ⢠On-demand streaming ā files download only when opened ⢠Pin files and folders for guaranteed offline access ⢠Conflict detection with configurable strategies: server wins, local wins, keep both, or manual resolution ⢠LRU cache eviction keeps your device from filling up ⢠Background refresh keeps metadata current ā CELLULAR-AWARE ā Set per-connection policies for cellular data: block sync on cellular, cap file sizes, or allow everything. Never worry about a 2 GB upload draining your plan. ā SHARE SHEET UPLOADS ā Send files to a RemoteDisk connection from any app via the iOS share sheet. Upload photos, PDFs, documents, or anything else directly to the destination folder you choose. ā SECURITY FIRST ā ⢠Credentials stored in the iOS Keychain, never in plain text ⢠Shared keychain access group so extensions authenticate without re-entering secrets ⢠No telemetry, no analytics, no third-party servers ā your data goes only between your device and your storage ā POWER USER FEATURES ā ⢠Custom endpoint URLs for self-hosted deployments ⢠Multiple connections to the same provider with different credentials ā LOCALIZATION ā Full English and Simplified Chinese support with in-app language switching. ā WHO IT'S FOR ā ⢠Developers who keep assets in R2 or S3 and want to edit them on iPad ⢠Photographers backing up to B2 or Wasabi who need to preview shots on the go ⢠Homelab users with MinIO or a self-hosted server exposed via SFTP ⢠Anyone who wants their own storage to feel as native as iCloud
