## Review summary

User reviews consistently praise FTP Server for being easy to use, ad-free, and reliable, with strong Wi‑Fi transfers and good FileZilla compatibility. The main recurring drawbacks are device compatibility issues on some Android versions (notably certain Xiaomi/Redmi models) and enforced directory restrictions that prevent selecting any folder. Overall, it’s a lightweight, free FTP server that works well for many users, but those on affected devices or who want unrestricted directory access may encounter problems.

### Pros

- Ad-free experience with no nagging screens
- Easy to install and use with a simple interface
- Very reliable and stable; works for years on a variety of devices
- Excellent for FTP transfers over Wi‑Fi, especially with FileZilla
- Free to use with no limits or ads

### Cons

- Compatibility issues on certain devices/Android versions (e.g., Xiaomi Redmi devices, Android 12)
- Directory access is restricted; you cannot freely choose any folder and are forced to pick specific directories
