Works great on older phone, HTC Evo 4G. Using this for storage, mp3 files etc. I use Bitvise SSH / SFTP client on Windows, wanted something on the phone that would work with this. Installed this, set it up, all works great. This runs Android 4 series which allows read / write access to the SD card. My understanding is newer versions of Android restrict access to the SD card, kind of defeats the purpose of having the storage but whatever. I suspect that is why many commenters are having trouble saving to the SD card, no issues at all in my case. Newer OS = less functionality. War is peace, etc etc. But great app here imo.

Once set up correctly it works much faster than other apps both in listing contents and transfer of files. Ftp and sftp work but cannot get ftps working using the inbuilt key (no time to make my own key to test). Have to click back button then click yes to save changes, simple save/cancel buttons at the bottom would be preferred. Will pay for full version if these issues are addressed as otherwise is a brilliant app.

Set it up in sftp server mode. Works fine with Linux sftp command line tool. But when used as a file system, seems ok at first but fails on copying files to server. Xubuntu 12.04 (used "Gigolo" program to set up file system connection). Developer web site pretends this program does not exist, only the modular server (that is not really free) is documented.

Just awesome.... Dont blame on the transfer rates coz that depends on ur hardware specs.. (as some ppl are complaining).... You can use it as a wifi file transfer, run a full functional ftp website.....!!!! Or use it to sync ur stuffs on ur home network etc...... The best in play store..... U can make it run automatically after boot......

In my opinion the best FTP server on Android, offering multi-user with different permissions and start folders. Slight niggle with entering port number but this can be overcome by typing the number in another app and copying then pasting into FTP port.

What a dumb app. Runs around in circles. Says create server name, port, then says can't save till add user, so add user and all info then when go back to save server it is blank again. So full out again and when try to save it says must create user first. WTF?
