FileBrowser Professional for Negative User Reviews

✓ Files app flopGot this to try to connect to a sftp and get it through the files app, but as it turns out, every time I want to look at it in the files app this file browser has to be opened, as it doesn’t try to connect automatically or send me back to the files app it just opens up and sits there..OverridingskyVersion: 20.24

✓ UnreliableKeeps crashing during long haul transfers of photo gallery on iOS 12.4.1 and 14.3. I had better results using FE File Browser..My first ever review 2Version: 20.47

✓ Latest version is garbageJust upgraded to IOS 11 along with the latest version of this software, not sure what was done to FileBrowser for Business but it crashes almost every time I try to use it and the folder views are so big that only a couple can be displayed without scrolling unlike previous versions. If you are looking for a good file app, pass on this and keep looking, at least until they fix this garbage... and to think I bought this disappointing revision... bring back the old one!!.DJS65Version: 11.0

✓ RefundSet up to doesn’t work to every cloud service and I when I asked for refund comes up with this app not eligible for refund ripoff.All the nic names takenVersion: 14.8

✓ Awesome but could be betterThis is a great little file app, it’s necessary on the iPad as i find there are a ton of bugs with OneDrive and what not with the regular ipad file app, i regularly lose my work that it supposed to be saved. If not for this app, I would be MUCH harder to use the ipad as laptop replacement. The only complaint i have is that there is no real proper keyboard shortcuts like there is on Mac. The biggest thing i miss is very easily typing on the keyboard and the file would be come highlighted, where one could easily hold CMD and up arrow to open. It’s a very quick keyboard gesture that saves a ton of time navigating through file paths all the time that this app does sadly not have. Even adjusting the accessibility settings on the ipad does not help much. As an FYI, the regular files app for the ipad does support this feature..Trivium91Version: 20.37

✓ I can’t get remote sync to S3 workingSync to another cloud works. When trying to setup remote sync to S3 I get “The operation couldn’t be completed (com.amazon-aws.awss3errordomain error 0.)” S3 sync was my use case :(.M iphone reviewVersion: 14.3

✓ BrowserPlease update to include a browser to download url. My university only has a site to download through login. It doesn't work with the URLs downloaded..Chris_huttonVersion: 7.5

✓ One major drawbackIt does what it says it will do but with 1 annoyance and a definite lack of customer service: when navigating menus the app always returns to the top of a list. This is means you always have to manually scroll back to where you were. It's very annoying if you are searching or browsing for a file or folder and a waste of time when dealing with large folders. I have reported it to customer service several updates ago but they have not done anything about it. A definite drawback to an otherwise useful and reliable app..Likes FilesVersion: 9.2

✓ Does not seem to work with latest version of Catalina.I can connect and log into my iMac mid 2011, running High Sierra, but cannot with my new iMac December 2019 running latest Catalina. I understand Apple keeps moving forward, and developers have moving targets they must constantly adjust for. But FileBrowser is not the only tech I have that shows this problem. Yet no one seems to be acknowledging this or giving estimates as to when they will be fixing the problem. It is frustrating to handle the inconvenience. It is maddening to be kept in the dark..JmcsysVersion: 16.7

✓ Very complicatedToo complicated for me..Boo boo marooVersion: 23.16

✓ Needs improvingThe major reason I purchased the app was Shortcut actions. It wasn’t clear to me that file operations only work on remote devices. I wouldn’t have purchased the app without shortcut actions for local files. There are a lot of good features in this app and I hope that that these issues will be addressed so I can improve this review..MbiermanVersion: 14.8

✓ Whines to post reviewEven after paying a premium price for the app, this app constantly whines at you to post a review. Here it is. -3 stars..RecipeDudeVersion: 9.8

✓ File sync no longer worksI modified a file in one of the sync folders. Then when I do a sync, the file in the sync folder is overwritten by the older file in the SMB server. This feature used to work before but is now broken!!!.HiyosakiVersion: 15.4

✓ Urgent Help NeededWhy of a sudden the file browser pro Sync Files CANNOT be accessed. I placed so many files in there already. Not sure how can i get customer support too from the app! Pls Help..Ivan TandyoVersion: 20.24

✓ Can’t open mail saved from outlookWhy cant I open mail from saved messages ?.PJH SSealVersion: 16.6

✓ Website lied. Does NOT load raw nef filesLiterally the only reason I bought this was so I can more efficiently go through and organize and delete Raw pictures from my photography stored in the nef file type. The website state that this format was supported. It is NOT. will be requesting a refund from apple directly as I doubt a developer who so blatantly lied will honor a refund request..Cody7806Version: 24.3

✓ Doesn't work with Onedrive for BusinessOffice365 and onedrive for Business does not work with this app. Sharepoint server will not connect through this app either..William 1234567890987654321Version: 8.6

✓ FileBrowserUseful tool to navigate between My Files and Vpn..Kit Kat 1970Version: 5.8

✓ I can’t access one of my foldersI can’t access one of my folders it just says ‘error’ but other than that this app is good for school & I kinda had no choice but to download it but meh. Wat’s the difference between file browns were for business & FileBrowser pro? My FileBrowser for business recently updated to FileBrowser pro and there was no difference...at least not that I’ve noticed yet. And for some reason I need to type in a password to access FileBrowser. I mean, it’s fine I can live with it, but it’s a bit annoying. Anyways, great app, it helped me submit a lot of documents and get recourses for school. — Pheonixwolf (not SH Wildpaw Girl if it says that — I changed my name lmao).🐾SH Wildpaw Girl🐾Version: 20.17

✓ Very DisappointedI’ve not fully used all the functionality on the pro app so I'm not reviewing that. The two stars are because I already had FB standard and when I upgraded to pro it wiped all my data in the standard version. There was a lot of data that has taken a long time to accumulate. I’m disappointed the upgrade has made such a mess of things..Jiber808Version: 20.42

✓ Latest version crashes opening SharePointThe latest version of the application crashes when I try to open a SharePoint location. The previous version worked very well on iOS 11. Please, do not update to the latest version....S. VigerVersion: 11.0

✓ App needs to be updated for ios11App is not able to open .pdf or .docx files. Don’t know about the other types of files..LongbullVersion: 11.0

✓ Does see all photos on phone…*EDIT* To the developer. FileBrowser as complete 100% access to all my photos. Original Review Sometimes Inlike to save photos from various sources and then store them on my lan. I can see the photos on my phone but when I open the All Photos in iOS within File Browser, it doesn’t see them all, only selected ones. Makes this all but useless..Chuck-IVVersion: 23.10
