Works perfectly for quick html, etc edits
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.
2021-05-23
By far the best
This is by far the best FTB client I have ever found. It connects to all my servers without any issue were other apps just couldn’t make the cut. My congratulations to the development team.They saw the Lotta problems for me. And I love the fact that I can edit HTML files on the server directly in the app. It would be nice to have an HTML preview available from the edit area before saving back to the server.

Not a true ftp client
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.
2021-04-27
Best SFTP client I’ve found!
Hands down the best client I’ve found supports previews of text, images and can play media files as well!
2021-01-18
Excellent!
Love it and been using it for many years with no problems!
2021-01-11
Does not support current TLS 1.2
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.
2021-01-04
Excellent App
Great

Problemas
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.

FTPManager Pro works great
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.
2020-10-10
great app; but might as well use their other one
they have another app “FE Explorer” that has essentially the same functionality plus lots of extra. Probably worth using that instead :)
2020-10-10
Outstanding!
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!!!
2020-09-07
hai
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?
2020-09-01
Buggy
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.
2020-08-10
The best!
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!!!
2020-07-24
It won’t load
i’m trying to load something up and it won’t load.
2020-07-02
Excellent Utility
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!
2020-05-30
Works fine if you only need to transfer a few files.
I’ve lost all credibility with my son. He needed to back up all of his images and videos without iTunes so I recommended this app. He was using the free version but it kept timing out.
I told him he needed the Pro version but that kept on doing the same thing. Why is it that when you setup a backup location, and start a backup, it always copies everything all over again? Most backup programs can tell what’s changed and what hasn’t, not this app, it starts all over!
Since it always craps out, that means having to start the back up again, but guess what? It starts from file 1 all over again, wth? How hard can it be to just have it continue with the job that it had started?
2020-05-17
It works!
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.
2020-05-10
doesnt work with dropbox
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.
2020-04-20
Easy
Easy to use recognized my hard drive on my Arris Cable modem USB port right off the bat. So easy to transfer files.
2020-01-15
Fav app period
This is the app I use the most. Makes every other file sharing app obsolete. Quick, clean and easy. Better than dropbox imo

Best Utility at Its Price when you need SFTP
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.
2019-10-27
Went from excellent to poor
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.
2019-09-30
Used to be good/poor support
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.
2019-09-30
Does all FTP duties in a convenient way
Rename, copy, move, delete and even view and edit the code in the app!
Absolutely fantastic
2019-09-26
Used to work
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.
2019-08-22
Horrible
Does not work at all. Will not show files on ftp server. Folders are visible but files are not. Absolute garbage.
2019-07-29
FTP pro is excellent
This is an excellent program. I use it for accessing a usb drive on the internet for photographs. It works great
2019-07-29
don’t waste your money
I should have read the reviews before buying this app, buggy and doesn’t work very well
2019-07-20
Doesn't support 2FA
Unable to connect to systems requiring 2FA.
2019-06-19
This app HYJACKS other file associations
I use this to upload files to a company drive and the app has taken over some file types that it cant open.
Works for TRANFER but HYJACks the file extension.
DWG files are a common file that is associated with AutoCad
FTP Manager Pro has “claimed all DWG files” as FTP manager Pro files. The FTPmanage icon is now on all DWG files.
Not appropriate and now the association is making it difficult to open or find files on my cloud drive WRONG logo and FTP manager will not open this file type.
2019-05-20
Excellent
Great time saving tool.
I’ve been using it for years and it’s my goto iphone “putty”
2019-04-25
File upload
Could we get a way to save files such as from photos to the FTP servers?
2019-04-11
Where is “search” icon?
When I open an .html file in text editor, I no longer can find the “search” icon to search for code. Where is this option now?
2019-03-23
Can’t upload!!!!
What’s the point of this app if I cant upload anything? That’s all I wanted for and I spent money on it for nothing.
2019-02-24
Don’t waste your time or money
This app is a bad joke.
I needed an app to take files out of Auria, the digital audio workstation app, and load them up to an online folder. Should be stupid simple. Not with this app. It cannot find the files in the Auria folder.
I contacted the developer and was told this is not a bug, that I had to move my files outside of the Auria folder. Why? Just because this app is a bad joke? Really?
On the other hand, FTP Client Pro does a great job.
As the title says, don’t waste your time or money.
2019-01-23
Download options disappointing
Would be bette rig i could download more than one file at a time.
2018-11-25
Excelente App 👍👍👍👍👍
Puedes pasar files desde tu PC al iPhone. Sin la necesidad de cables o iTunes.
Intuitiva y sencilla de utilizar.
Totalmente recomendable. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
2018-10-17
Access Denied: 530
Ever since I updated my iPhone to OS v12.0 the FTP Manager Pro app has been intermittently not allowing access for accounts that have access. This is very frustrating and it has been hindering that aspect of my company. No one has changed any credentials. Will there be a fix? If so, when will the next version of this app be made available? Once this issue is resolved, I will change my rating, if iTunes allows me to do so.
2018-10-14
Used to be feature rich, now it’s been stripped.
You can’t access anything beyond FTP. This app used to connect to my SBC’s with no issues. Now I have to install FTP Servers to use this app. It’s ridiculous. Avoid this dev and find a different app.
2018-10-06
Fantastic, worth every penny
I was looking for something that allowed me to stream music directly from dropbox without stopping after each song. I got a lot more than I bargained for with this bad boy, especially being able to connect my own servers with SFTP. Pretty cool, thank you for making this.
2018-09-10
Great App, suggestion for improvement
Finally a way to stream my music from a portable usb drive to my iPad without an internet connection. I have a TP-Link AC750 Wireless Travel Router (TL-WR902AC v1) which has a usb port to attach a portable usb drive. This FTPManager Pro app connects to the usb drive through the router without an internet connection (great for in the car, camping, etc.). The app has a player that has continuous play option for all music files in the same folder (has shuffle option). It works great.
I would give it 5 Stars if the app would search all folders in the drive and then allow shuffle play of all songs on the drive regardless of folder structure. To workaround I have to move all the mp3 files into the same folder. Other than that...good job!

Can’t upload files
Can’t upload files.
I bought pro version. Connected to my ftp server. Wanted to basically copy and paste an image file to another directory. I duplicated the image file. But there is no option to move the file. So I downloaded the file, went to the directory that I wanted the file to be but there is no upload option.
2018-08-08
Good app, missing key feature
If you're in a WiFi network, this app works beautifully. Connecting to an ftp site using cell data just doesn't work though. That is a key reason I bought the app.
If they would fix the ability to connect via my phone provider network, this would be a 5 star review.
2018-07-14
Poor SFTP performance
Transfer file via SSH/SFTPis very slow, like < 1MBps. And even worse for large MOV files. Hanging for long time doing nothing then begins to transfer very slowly.
2018-06-06
Good but only works on WiFi
I don’t know if it’s a bug or not, but it doesn’t work on cellular. You get a Network error if you are cellular. Too bad.
2018-05-30
Needs a little refining. Save before exit would be nice
Love this app. Especially for the shortcut characters at the top.
It needs 2 things.
-Dark mode
-Save on exit. Too many times Ive exited the page instead of saving first.
2018-05-27
Best FTP Client I have found
Since the reviews for the competitor, “FTP Client Pro,” indicated it was superior to all of its competitors, I purchased it. But after comparing it with this app (FTPManager Pro), this app proves to be, hands down, far more intuitive than “FTP Client Pro.” Plus it has greater functionality and it cost less.
As a software developer, I find FTPManager Pro to be very intuitive and full-featured. While I continue to use FileZilla on my Windows devices, this app has the feel and ease of use on my iPad that I am accustomed to with FileZilla. Plus, it provides a WiFi connection to other devices as well as access to nearby devices on the same local network. It is clearly worth far more than the asking price (that’s not a suggestion, just an observation). I highly recommend it.
2018-05-07
Very easy to use
Great product for uploading phones pictures to your personal cloud
2018-03-28
Great FTP client for iOS
I use FileZilla for all my FTP needs when on my computers. FTPManager Pro is as easy to use on iOS and it has been a welcome addition to my iPhone and iPad. I highly recommend this app.
2018-03-19
One star why connected but nothing is seen in my ssh
How can I review what I do not see my website, files, data, but say I am connected ssh. Where is my data, files open folder empty, took about 1 hour before finally it worked connected. But never get anything but spinning wheel whereas I am assuming is downloading my data on brands new iPad Pro 12.9 inch of 512 gigs storage space. So what am I missing here?
2018-03-06
FTP
Simple & to the point when it comes to files.
Thank you.
2018-01-20
FTP Manager
Works well. No problems.
2018-01-19
Works for me
When we travel, I take only the IPad and and use FTP to update our travelogue website. Give it a try.
2017-12-08
FTP Pro - File Explorer ?
An excellent File Transfer Protocol app that blends with some other apps nicely.
For the FTP Pro app (WAN) to directly access the File Explorer app (LAN) would be great.
2017-11-22
Rename file function gone
Latest version doesn’t allow files to be renamed. Very irritating.
2017-11-13
Scam!!!
I have upgraded to the pro version but when I wanted to download again it asked to pay again the pro fee. Avoid!
2017-10-17
Little workhorse app
I’m a web/app developer (not associated with this app) and I use this app all the time for maintaining webpages and scripts while on the go. The keyboard is particularly great, as it provides the ability to tab/indent easily (among other things, but I use tab a lot) without messing around with key combinations. Take a look at the top row of their keyboard to see what I mean, other ftp apps I’ve looked at don’t have that. There’s a couple of only minor things i’d change about the app, but overall it’s a workhorse utility. There are seriously very few apps that I use as much as I use this app, it’s a great purchase!
2017-09-11
Probably The Best Thing I've Paid For On The App Store!
This Is The Best Thing BC It Fits My Needs!
If I Need To Upload, Edit, or Move A File On My Server I Can Go On The App While I'm At School & Do That!
Thanks!
2017-09-08
Decent
It is a decent app. It does what I need it to do and it is cheap. Definitely room for improvement but I have no regrets with the purchase.
iPad 4th generation on iOS 10.
2017-07-27
Love the easy operation
Simple and fast
2017-06-28
Horrible Transfer Rates.
Don't buy this if you expect to transfer large files because it's horrible for that. This app is ridiculously frustrating.
2017-06-06
Amazing SFTP Client for my RPi
This SFTP client is perfect for file transfer directly from raspberry pi to iphone and offcause other ftp tasks👍😊😎
2017-06-03
Overall A Decent FTP Client
Overall this is a decent FTP client, but needs some fine tuning of several UX bugs (small stuff but I can live with them). It has decent Dropbox and iCloud support, however it lacks support for Google Drive; hence the 3 stars.
2017-05-03
Unresolved Bug Present and Reported
This is not a bad app, it actually works very good as an FTP Client and Editor.
However there is a bug that has been reported to the developer and is yet to be resolved.
The issue is present when opening a document and selecting Text or Browser view.
Once "Text" mode is selected, the choice remains active after the document is closed.
The result is that any subsequent opening of the document will Not prompt for Text or Browser view and will default to Text.
This can be quite frustrating when switching between Text ( Editing ) and Browser to view results of edits.
There is a workaround that entails closing the document in question, then going back one level to another folder or file and then returning to the desired document which then will again prompt for Text or Browser.
The developer/s have been informed of this issue and promised to have it resolved.
There was also mention of having the ability to switch from Text to Browser view, right from an open document.
Resolving this issue and or adding the ability to switch from within an open document would certainly warrant a Five (5) Star review.
Still Waiting.
