Happily purchased the pro version. For added security, i chose the ftps option in the app (tls/ssl) to connect to win10 machine through winscp app. It worked. However, the created ftps server is still accessible from win explorer through ftp connection which defeats any added security (as far as i know win exp. is not supposed to support ftps). Does the ftps option in the app create two connections types (ftp/ftps) rather than exclusive ftps?

At first I have installed the free version got impressed then took the paid version for better experience but i find no difference between them.... initially the app is worked fine but some time later my laptop unable to connect after trying several times it connected but can't transferred the files to my laptop and disconnected so I am taking refund from this app .... Fully disappointed.. It's a humble request to the developer to resolve the issue ....

Overall the application os good for wifi beams transfer but there is no security to access the link. However the link should have password protected to browse the files directory of the file manager in the phone, without password the the file directory can't be access. If this feature can be added then it good and secure. I have done unchecked anonymous access but its not working
