Remote File Explorer App Reviews

Wheres the "file management". When I connect to my network storage the only option is to download. Nothing about deleting or renaming files. So its useless to me.

This thing does nothing except waste your time.

Like most people who have tried it, it wont see any of the desktops on my network. It wasnt able to find any of the Windows, Linux, and Mac boxes I have.

I have three MacBook Pros and four Thinkpads; the app never identified a single computer on my network.

Says it has file readers for .jpg files but the only thing you can see is the file name and the option to download. Not useful for me. It connected fine to my remote hard drive though.

Nothing.

Sadly its not possible to insert your own URL. If you have a smb on your router its probably not working for you.

Not able to access file system.

Not intuitive and doesnt see any windows or MAC machines in my wifi.

Does not perform as advertised. Or at all.

It crashes all the time especially when using the browser

doesnt find machines in smb...useless...

On my network, it can find nothing -- the only thing I can get from this app are banner ads from Marriott. Nor is there any support either in-app or from the "app support" button, which merely takes you to the publishers site (which contains no mention of this program). Only giving it one star because I cant figure out how to give it zero.

Works as mentioned

I downloaded this to access files on a server. It defaults to, and apparently only supports, SMB. It doesnt make sense for an iPad app to prefer a windows protocol over apple AFP or even industry standard ones like NFS. Finding something else that works with something besides windows crap.

This app doesnt see even one of the ten SMB-enabled machines on my home net, and I cant find a way to add machines by IP address. That means it is useless to me.

Finds smb shares, no way to browse then non-anonymously. That makes app useless.

Wont find any computers on my network. As of right now I have 2 windows pcs waiting for connections. No way to enter host name / ip. Therefore completely useless.

I have two Mac Pros and two MacBook Pros on our network but none of them appear in the app. No way to add manually. No way to troubleshoot. Poorly made app. Bad user experience.

It connects to my Mac without a problem. Supports downloading of multiple files at once. Sometimes, theres a problem with downloads stopping in the middle. Also, the app does not support streaming.
