Start a web server on your mobile device and access it from other devices in your local network.
FEATURES
- Use folders stored locally on your iPhone/iPad or in iCloud
- Serve static files and websites over HTTP
- Run the server also while the app is in the background
- Enable Directory Listing to browse the selected folder in your browser
- Multitask in SplitView on iPad by eg. using the server and Safari at the same time
- Add password to control access to shared content
- Customize Directory Listing: theme, dotfile visibility, footer text
HOW TO
1. Choose a folder and press “start”
2. Open the generated IP address in a browser on a device in the same WiFi network
3. Done, there is no third step!
USE CASES
- Quickly share files on your iPhone/iPad with other devices in the same WiFi network
- Host a static website, useful for eg. software developers working on the go
- Send files to devices that have limited connectivity features (eg. GPS navigation, gaming consoles etc)
- Create a small media server for your household
TIPS
- The server works on and is visible to other devices only on the same WiFi network (ie. connected to the same router)
- This is a static server which means can’t be used as eg. a PHP or NodeJS backend server
- The Background Mode requires an audio track played while the app is not visible. Go to settings to pick from a number of pleasant nature sounds!

Please Fix Bug
There is a bug resulting in a 404 regardless of the number of files, or file types - ie: index.html = 404, whether or not directory listing is enabled
This is very irritating seeing as i paid R80 for this, to get an app that does not work
Such a pity because i genuinely think this is the only app on the app store that provides the functionality that it does, background mode by playing a sound to maintain uptime is very innovative, and I genuinely find the UI very appealing and easy to use all around.
Please just fix the bug 👍🏼
