FTPS Server

FTPS Server turns your phone or tablet into a secure FTP server for private file sharing. Share photos, videos, and documents with a computer on the same Wi-Fi, without uploading them to a cloud. You choose who can connect, which folder they can open, and whether they can only download files or also change them. **Share files on your network, not through a cloud** Files stay on your Android device. The other device connects to this FTP server over your own network, so a copy is not sitting on someone else's storage. - Move photos, videos, and documents from your phone to a PC, or from a PC onto your phone. - Keep personal and work files off third-party cloud storage. - Use it at home, in an office, or on a hotspot you control. The client has to be on the same network: the same Wi-Fi, or the same hotspot or USB tethering link. - Leave the server running with the screen off. A notification keeps transfers going. **Choose who can open which folder** Add a separate login for each person or device, and limit what that login can do. - Create a username and password for every connection. - Give each login its own folder. That login cannot browse the rest of the files on your device. - Allow full access, or a read-only login that can download files but cannot upload, rename, or delete. - Copy or share the address, port, and logins when the other device is ready to connect. **Encrypted transfer, not plain FTP** This is an FTPS server: explicit FTP over TLS (AUTH TLS). Plain FTP, with no encryption, is not used. The password and the files are encrypted while they cross the network. - A login is not sent in the clear. Transfers use FTP over TLS. - The first start creates a TLS certificate for you, so you can connect without extra setup. - If you already have a certificate, you can use that instead. - Compare the certificate fingerprint shown in the app with the one shown by your client, so you know you reached this device. - File names in your own language are preserved, including letters that are not in the English alphabet. **See what the server is doing** - The app shows the address and port to enter in the client. - Each login is listed with its folder and whether access is read-only or full. - A log shows connection activity when something fails and you need to see why. - You choose the port and how many clients can be connected at once. **Start the FTP server in four steps** 1. Add a user, with a username and a password. 2. Pick the folder that user is allowed to open. 3. Choose read-only or full access. 4. On the other device, open an FTPS client, turn on explicit TLS (AUTH TLS), and enter the address, port, and login. **Clients that can connect** Any client that supports explicit FTPS works. Examples: FileZilla and WinSCP on Windows, FileZilla on Linux, Cyberduck or FileZilla on Mac, and an FTPS client on another phone. **Typical uses** - Copy files between a phone and a laptop on the same Wi-Fi. - Open phone files from a desktop file manager. - Hand someone a read-only login when they should download files and nothing else. **What this FTP server is not** It does not upload your files to the developer or to a cloud service. It is also not a public file host. Use it on a network you trust, such as home or office Wi-Fi. FTPS Server is open source (CC0-1.0) and contains no ads.
