Review summary

Users generally find that while the app does provide basic Samba server functionality and works with Linux clients, it suffers from very aggressive ads, frequent connection problems especially with Windows devices, and many useful features are behind a paywall. The server can stop unexpectedly, documentation is poor, and some users encounter crashes. Advanced users can utilize workarounds like combining with NetShare or using non-standard ports, but overall the app struggles with usability and reliability issues.

Pros

Works with Linux clients in some cases
Supports anonymous access reliably
Offers necessary functionality of a Samba server on Android
Uses a non-standard port which some advanced users can handle
Can be combined with NetShare to improve connectivity issues

Cons

Extremely aggressive and intrusive advertising, including full screen ads
Poor connectivity with Windows clients, often unable to find or open shares
Many important features like setting share location are locked behind a paywall
Server often stops running unless the device screen is kept on and app open
Lack of adequate documentation and user instructions
Unstable app behavior including crashes when clients connect
