What users are saying

1. it will be awesomebeen using it for over 2 years now good for transfering large files and testing your own pages such an creative app thanks to the devDoes not connect outside the router network, even after enabling port forwarding on port 8080.

2. It's very convenient to use it to transform files from android phones to kindle😋Simply works! Where (2) other solutions refused connection from another android device over android hotspot, this worked out perfectly.

3. It worked well but unfortunately I had issues with audio as kWS doesn't support byte range requests (as it is only http 1.0). Shame, as otherwise it was perfect, so have uninstalled and now using a different server)I wish non technical people would not give reviews on software.

4. Works a treat.Works very well for hosting .onion over orbot, however requires constant restarting on 8.1. Have disabled optimization and placed on unmonitored list, problem persists.

5. I used this to access local html files from the browser which is no longer allowed in Android 10.

6. Web development just became possible on both my old Tab and phone.A little bit hard to setup but does it's purpose for me, running a local host site from my phone.

7. This works fine with port forwarding.

8. It's good for nothing unless server is different from client so that stays on top alwaysAs the layout of the app is so simple.

9. Allowing me to share my mobile files to my computer.the best .

10. i hope you can add stylish folders and files with icons.

11. Please fix for 5 stars.It keeps stopping when opening a browser.
