Qfile Pro is a free companion app for QNAP NAS that allows you to browse and manage the files on your NAS using your iPhone or iPad.
Prerequisites:
- iOS 13 or later
- QNAP NAS running QTS 4.0 or later, QuTS hero 4.5.0 or later
Major features of Qfile Pro:
- Access files on your QNAP NAS anytime, anywhere.
- Directly upload photos and documents from your iOS devices to your NAS.
- Easy sharing: Create download links to easily share files via email or SMS, or simply email the file as an attachment.
- Easy management: Move, copy, rename, and delete files on your NAS using your mobile device. No computer required.
- Offline file reading: Download files from your NAS to your iOS device for convenient access when you do not have an Internet connection.
- Auto upload: Automatically upload photos from your device's photo gallery to the NAS. (To ensure that Qfile Pro can continually provide this background service, you must allow the location service - please note that this may noticeably decrease battery life.)
- Qysnc integration: Synchronize files between your mobile device and your QNAP NAS. (Requires QTS 4.3.4/QuTS hero 4.5.0 or later, and Qsync Central to be installed on your QNAP NAS device.)
Other features:
1. Support for displaying files thumbnail.
2. Supports control playback from QNAP NAS to DLNA devices. (requires QNAP Media Server, and QTS 4.0/QuTS hero 4.5.0 or later)
3. Support for file compression. (QTS 4.0/QuTS hero 4.5.0 or later)
Background downloading doesn’t work (yes I have background app refresh on), if you leave the app for any reason it drops your file download and then when you go back, it starts the file from the beginning again, never resumes where it left off or where the app crashed. Just having your service change from 4G to 5G can cause a file to stop downloading. This is a serious issue when you are downloading large files!
Hot iPhone & random crashes
Works well when it works. But my iPhone 14 Pro gets very hot using it and it regularly crashes so I have to open and browse back to my folders again
I only use this for syncing to NAS
Unfortunately this app must be actively running on screen to upload files and can't be run in the background still to upload large videos.
Works fine otherwise.
Great features, clunky to use
Like QNAPs other apps this one has promise but is clunky to use.
I’ve got it to transfer my photos to a backup folder and it works but it’s a little tricky to understand the process.
And for example it doesn’t allow you to name files when you upload them to the NAS. You have to upload, dig for the file (recent folders would help), find the file, and rename.
I’m finding I use it to quickly dump files into a temp folder on my NAS then use a PC to clean up and sort later as it’s much quicker.
Wake on lan has disappeared from the app
Please bring this feature back in.
Finally the app is blazing fast
Finally the app is blazing fast
👏
Yay, the app finally supports the 11” iPad Pro’s native resolution.
Random crashes
When browsing folders on my nas Qfile will randomly just close, leaving me to have to manually log in again and navigate back to where I was. Happens regularly enough that it’s a problem. Encounter it the most when I’m switching between multiple directories in a session. I’m on the latest IOS version. Very annoying please fix.
Rotating photos
Simple function like rotating a photo is missing!
No iPad Pro or multi task support
Please add iPad Pro screen support and split screen support
