FTPManager Pro App recensioner

Super App läuft stabil

One of the reasons why I loved this app was not just for the file transfer to my Web server. But the easy access to use the app text editor to edit all of my website's webpages. Sure I could use the host website to access my stuff and edit them that way. But FTP manager was way way easier for me to not only edit pages but update them and either preview them in the app or through my web browser via my website. I don't know what happened to the text editor but it needs to come back in order for me to continue using this app. I tried updating a webpage of mine on my server and for whatever reason the text editor on this app is no more. Instead of being asked if I want you preview the page or use the text editor and edit the page. When I tap on a file for my website regardless of the format it just takes me straight to the preview.

Would like to highlight one area this app is great, the number of filetypes it supports built-in. Ogg and other media files Apple devices usually don’t support, and I just found out it can natively open EPUBs as well! Like other people say basically the file manager iOS *should* have.

What happened to the custom keyboard?!?!

Used to be able to edit my website hosted on Macintosh Garden, however I can’t do that anymore… please fix.

bring back old text editor i can’t even add indents anymore

Really works very well. I tried the free version only to quickly upgrade. Very happy

10 stars if I could.

I was shocked at how easy it was to connect to an sftp server and download files. Simple, elegant user interface

Convenient to use

Developers, please make a normal code editor, so that 1) there was a button to turn off line breaks 2) that there were themes more normal, let's say monokai, if you do I think it will be a great application for web developers. 🙏

Slow to connect. Slow playing content

Not sure if this an issue on my end or the app, but when transferring photos on my home network, I will get PHPPhotosErrorDomain error -1 with an Ignore and Stop option. I have to physically tap ignore to continue. I can live with the fact that there are some errors, although I would like to eliminate them altogether. I really wish though, that there was an option to toggle an Ignore all future errors. Having to tap ignore over and over to get through a folder contents is really not fun. Any ideas why I am getting this error? Otherwise the app is the best I have found for IOS’s stifling photo transfer limitations and bugs.

Jeez, this is amazing! People trying to install .cia files on their 3DS’s but they only have an iPad..this app solves everything related to 3DS homebrew! This is really good!

Purchased this app to connect to servers via SFTP. While it does connect I get past my root directory like on other clients. All of the other protocols and local functions seem to work well (including SMB not advertised).

⭕️ Oh, this can unzip “.rar” 👍 ❌ Can’t connect “FTP” from another app. Example; You start FTP from an app (on the same device) with no password or user name (using “JetAudio” Wi-Fi FTP to transfer files) an then you try connecting using this app…all you get is errors connecting :/ it’s “IOS” fault not allowing to run 2 apps at the same time & try I connecting to “Android” an don’t work either…you gonna need a “PC” to transfer files.

While the FTP manager functionalities are excellent in their own right, what I have found after using this app for a year ist that it fills a much needed gap in the iOS operating system. iOS has only recently added a pseudo-file manager that relies on their own iCloud service to properly work. In addition, a lot of file types/codecs are just not supported (for example: WebM, EPUB). This app provides the ability to actually move and use files between services. As an example: Imagine you receive a WebM video from someone on Discord, that you would like to watch before uploading it to a file sharing website. With default iOS, this is not possible, as WebM video is not supported. Transferring the video into the iOS file manager does work, as well as uploading it to a website, but these processes are (in my opinion) much less transparent than using FTP manager. The actual SFTP/FTP functionality works perfectly as expected, have never had an issue with it. All in all, this app has provided me with much more functionality than I ever initially expected. Solid recommendation.

I’m a developer, paid apps like Panic Transmit or FE file manager didn’t worked out. Ftp management is a part of my daily routine, it’s more than a need. The only app that works great, open enough to achieve any task and never crashed or failed is this beast, right here. The King of FTP managers. Hat’s off.

Recently buy this app and use it as a backup app for my Photos library. It would be great to see further development of backup capabilities such as: - backup versioning ; - encrypt backup feature; - backup in background with ability to specify time and date (every day at 12pm for example); It may be in app purchase features.

This is the BEST FTP APP I have used on my I-Pad and I-Phone!!!!

Until your phone screen turns off. Super annoyed that the FTP servers don’t stay active if the app is open in the background.

Should be easier to choose files to send. Should remember destination folders.

This does not work for me, I wasted my money purchasing this app… useless go away and purchase a different one, does not work with nas… I can connect with any other software

Disable iCloud setting and app continues to reenable.

Do not waste your time trying out the others, simply put this app is great, and integrates well with many, many other apps.

There are a couple really good “editors” for iPad, but it can be a pain for quick edits. This app connects very easily to sftp and AWS Lightsail instances and lets me very easily find my file and edit that file on the fly. Interface is stupid easy to use. Adding my pass key file was very easy using the Music app file transfer. Overall, just crazy easy to use for those very quick edits. Haven’t really used this for anything else. 2.99 is a steal, I’d pay a lot more.

This is a simple file manager that connects to iCloud and does not connect to your ftp sites of choice. A terrible piece of misinformation. Should not be allowed to advertise as an ftp client.

Hands down the best client I’ve found supports previews of text, images and can play media files as well!

Love it and been using it for many years with no problems!

Just bought the app for FTPS access. Turns out it won’t connect because it doesn’t Suppport current tls 1.2. Anything older than that SHOULDNT be used.

Great

Compre la version Pro ya que contaba con la basica y al querer poner otro servidor me pedia comprar. Compre esta version y ahora se congela No me deja hacer nada, ni reiniciando el equipo (iPad mini 4) siempre obtengo el mismo resultado. Desintalo el FTP y sigue en lo mismo congelamiento desde que se abre el FTP.

After buying FTPManager Pro and using it for about a week, I am happy that this application is available in the App Store. It takes iTunes aside and provides an SFTP connection that is uncensored and reliable. I would recommend this app to other DIY users, for sure.

they have another app “FE Explorer” that has essentially the same functionality plus lots of extra. Probably worth using that instead :)

In order to regularly check my websites for implanted malicious code or SEO spam, I had to boot up my computer and use FileZilla. This elegant app allows me to do that site checking conveniently and quickly from my iPad! So impressed with the intuitive UI and fast setup. This is a MUST HAVE app!!!

your app doesnt make a dir in files app. cant use this as you kinda need that folder to spawn.... so how do you actually get a pem file into the ui then?

I like the app in general. It’s easy to us and fairly intuitive. But it’s buggy. Can’t transfer more one file at a time. Each time I transfer a file, I have to close the app and then restart to transfer another file.

I have to give you guys credit!! This is a great FTP. Client! I am I audio and video production and this app work great uploading/downloading and listening/viewing the files !!! Keep it up!!!

i’m trying to load something up and it won’t load.

Great app, been mainly sending songs (mp3) recorded on PC to my iPhone for review. Like the retro vinyl image used for the mp3 files. Easy to use..thanks! Still loving this app...if you’re looking for an FTP manager with all the options and security features, you won’t go wrong with this one. Easy to move/transfer entire folders...nice!

I’ve tried a bunch of FTP programs for my iPhone/iPad and FTPManager works! Easy to transfer pictures and files from your iPhone to server.

Can't transfer files from dropbox to the connected server. Must download to icloud or my ipad then transfer. Too many steps. If you fix this or explain, I will update my review.

Easy to use recognized my hard drive on my Arris Cable modem USB port right off the bat. So easy to transfer files.

This is the app I use the most. Makes every other file sharing app obsolete. Quick, clean and easy. Better than dropbox imo

I am reviewing v7.0.4 of FTPManager Pro. My need is to be able to view and move files quickly across a series of single-board computers, such as various versions of the Raspberry Pi. I read several reviews from years ago that were very critical of the product but it seemed to have the best balance of rating and review count so I reviewed the developer website. When I saw that it provided the iPad with its own FTP Server, I decided to check the price. I was surprised it was so affordable and gave it a try. I am more than impressed. To create consistent host profiles is a snail, and I was surfing across a half-dozen RPi computers in minutes. Connection time seems sub-second and anything longer and I know I made a mistake. The defaults are intelligently set, such as hide hidden files, but easy to switch. I do wish I could keep the FTP Server running when I switched apps but that probably isn’t a bad idea to terminate it. It just means I cannot test it as easily. All said, the best utility app investment in a long time. I am not affiliated with this developer nor did I receive compensation for this review.

I have used this app for several years. It was used to view home security camera footage that resided in my home FTP server. About 1 - 2 months ago after an upgrade, the app will fail to sequentially open up video clips periodically (1 in every 5 video clips) and hangs. Time to dump this app and look in the store for something else.

I used this app for a long time with no problems. It used to be great until recently it stopped seeing any of my folders in iCloud, where they’ve always been. Something has changed and support has been no help.

Rename, copy, move, delete and even view and edit the code in the app! Absolutely fantastic

Worked awesome forever. Most recent update crashes the app every time you open a file and go to edit the file or use the search feature. I’ll change my review once it’s fixed.

Does not work at all. Will not show files on ftp server. Folders are visible but files are not. Absolute garbage.
