Review summary

Reviews are generally positive about the app’s Finder/Files integration, ease of use, and effective bug fixes with strong support. However, recurring concerns focus on pricing/paywall confusion, occasional bugs affecting reliability, and macOS cleanup/volume mounting issues. Overall sentiment is favorable when bugs are addressed, but the pricing model and stability concerns remain the main points of contention.

Pros

Seamless Finder/Files app integration with direct access to SFTP servers (and support across Mac, iCloud, and the iOS Files app) for easy editing and uploading.
High usefulness and reliability after bug fixes; reviewers call it one of the best FTP apps and note it works well once issues are resolved.
Responsive customer support with quick bug fixes and updates (noted in multiple reviews).
Intuitive, workflow-friendly upload/edit process that avoids separate transfer steps and lets you edit files in place.

Cons

Pricing and feature gating by Pro plans leading to paywall frustration and confusion over what is free vs paid.
Recurring bugs and reliability concerns (e.g., past read/write issues, rename bug on Share Sheet, certificate/trust problems) indicating ongoing stability questions.
Uninstall/remnant issues and macOS integration quirks (artifacts left behind, volume mounting/unmounting difficulties) and an inability in some cases to delete users.

2026-07-25	Ma*****	Very good FTP client. I use it to receive audio files from a provider and it works well. Wish there was a refresh button to check for new files, but reopening the folder in finder does the trick.

2026-04-16	Ju*****	Working with the developer, they determined that there was a bug in the app that was not allowing to read and write with a single server set up. That has been fixed. App now works as intended and seems to be a very useful tool now. Thanks.

2026-03-07	Ss*****	Finally got it to connect to my telescope, but when I tried to transfer the data from the telescope to my computer, it pops up a screen listing the things that are included in the “free” and paid versions. Under “free” it has “download and upload from finder.” But up at the top it says “Download is a Pro Feature.” I will not buy from a company that can’t something like that straight.

I contacted Anders by email; he responded immediately, and within 48 hours released an update that solved the problem. Amazing customer service. I enthusiastically recommend this app!
