Can sync external drives!
With the purchase of an iPhone 15 Pro we now have the ability to easily connect and quickly transfer files from any number of digital storage devices. I can now backup digital photos from my camera’s memory card to an external SSD, all with my phone. When moving this much data, I only want to transfer the new photos off the card and onto the drive. This app does this very well and gives me a log of its success or failures (not that I have had any yet). The app certainly isn’t perfect and could use some usability updates and GUI improvements, but it does get the job done. And I can’t find any other iPhone app that can do so. Developers, please keep the updates coming! Thanks!!
No internet other then iCloud no http no ftp
I could not connect to HTTPS or FTP cannot see the option to do this. Maybe it’s for the pro version
This works good for me
I use it on my iPad and iPhone and it’s better than having to pay monthly to iCloud! Try it and thank me later
Good app
Helps with synchronization and the easy to navigate and work with.
Does Not Work Under Venture 13.1
Has been performing flawlessly, then Ventura 13.1.....BOOM, file sharing stops working!
Doesn't seem to work anymore
What happened to this program? Is it not compatible with latest MacOS? This used to be an excellent staple program for merging and syncing massive folders of files, but I just re-downloaded it after a few years, and... it no longer works.
I gave it 2 simple folder strutures to merge via the "A < > B" method, but it's not working. I tried it several times and it syned more each time, but still did not fully complete the sync, even though it reported it as such.
Thusly, it seems I can no longer trust this App to perform the duties I used to entrust to it.
Hopefully it will get fixed.
Easy to use folder sync
Really easy to use for a beginner mac user. Will try the developer’s other software. Highly recommended.
this app was very nice to find
It's thoughtful of Vadim to put up this reduced-function version to try, which can be used in the two-way sync mode. Out of fairness, and because I'd like to use a few more settings, I'm going to purchase the Pro now.
This is a pretty technical app, as it should be, so you should be pretty technically aware to use it. Viewed as such, it has all the features you'd like to find, such as logging, saved tasks, variant modes, and especially, a completely detailed preview which you should run and carefully examine, before doing any actual sync.
On the preview, there are buttons which allow you to focus on particular views, so you can see only changed files, for example, to know exactly what is going to happen.
It appears, very importantly, that there's good conflict handling also, as we will understand that in any syncing operation, conflicts will naturally sometimes appear.
I've just used this app to allow working with two different Markdown text apps, each good, but requiring to have files only in their own fixed folders: IA Writer and Obsidian. It's worked fine, to get the same files in both folders, and will let me keep this up as I continue writing with both.
