This program allows you to run an ftp server on your android device.


This allows you to access the files on your device over a TCP-based network. You may use this application with any FTP Client or Windows File Explorer. To test, you may enter the FTP URL "ftp://...\" in the address bar
of any web browser in a device connected to the same WiFi network.By default, the user name and password are both "ftp"'. Use
this username and password when accessing the server.


A configuration option is provided in the "Advance Settings" to keep the phone awake as long as the server is running.
This fixes the common problem on some phones where the file transfer speed decreases when the phone is asleep.


For security and power efficiency, it is recommended to turn off the server after use.
