Acrosync - private cloud drive powered by rsync

Приложения такого типа - с хорошей синхронизацией, - редкость. Работает быстро, настраивается легко, что-то показывает. Вот только Open In не работает в платной версии - черный квадрат вместо списка приложений. Посему, платить смысла нет никакого. Разработчики что-то написали невнятное - посмотрим, починим, - но воз и ныне там. Одна звезда за синхронизацию.

The app hasn’t been updated in years, and is not compatible with newer SSH servers, because it relies on insecure encryption settings. Even if you figure out how to enable the insecure encryption on the server (which is a security hole), the app has other random errors that are impossible to debug. Also, since it hasn’t been updated, it’s not compatible with multitasking. You have to keep it in the foreground to transfer anything (when it even works). This app shouldn’t be for sale.

This app wouldn’t connect to rsync.net on my iPhone 8. I contacted tech support, but their answer was essentially “it works here.” Well, my rsync account works with Linux rsync on my office computer and a Rackspace server. Acrosync doesn’t use the Linux rsync though: they wrote their own. Maybe that’s a good place to look for a problem. Uninstalled.

Syncs perfectly to device and has a built-in file manager that has its own file opening software for all file types. Only issue is you have to manually download or upload but that's no big deal for what I'm using it for since most changes are made on the server. Great app worth the money in my opinion!

Worked right away with my Qnap and Thecus NAS boxes. Looking good so far.

The Title kind of says it all. Rsynch without tears (or man. pages) A simple to use, logical implementation of the Unix utility Rsync that lets you setup your own virtual cloud (well yes all Clouds are virtual). Works nicely to to uni or bidirectional synchronization of file or directional either unencrypted or with ssh tunneled encryption. Has all the bells. and whistles in a simple functional interface

So far, the paid app is working well, like the older, free app.

4enzy April 22 Edit I am able to authenticate and select a folder using port 88. When I click the Sync button, this error displays over AT&T or other Wi-Fi networks which allow this exact connection (rsync to the same server/port): Sync Error Failed to connect to 'SERVER.FQDN:22: connection timeout For some reason, the error indicates Acrosync is attempting and failing to connect to port 22, despite the Advanced Options being "On" and set to port 88. This app would be great if it would sync to port 88, but I will not be able to use it otherwise. gchen April 22 This is obviously a bug. Will be fixed in the next update.

This uses SSH and therefore works great for transfering files (pictures, videos, PDFs, websites) from a Linux PC to your iPad. Just install an SSH server on your PC and you can connect and sync any folder directly from your iPad. Unfortunately one of the recent iOS updates broke fullscreen video with this app, hence only four stars.

But why put the Sync button on the same page as Settings, where it's hard to find and it's really, really easy to mistakenly hose up the painstakingly entered settings.
