| 2024-11-19 |  | | Connection failed..... Connection failed..... Connection failed................. And I hope you like thumbnails, 2 for each photo App constantly drops connection. Very unreliable, will not execute file syncs in the background reliably. Qnap creates two separate thumbnails for each photo uploaded, one at medium resolution and the other at a very low resolution. Syncing photo folders takes a very long time if you have the patience to get through constant connection drops and additional files... |
| 2024-11-19 |  | | Most things work...But working on a pixel 9, we can't auto upload in the background. So whenever the app goes to the background and stays there for a minute or two, the upload will fail, waiting for you to pull the app back into the foreground. Please fix it and I'll update my rank. Edit: I've allowed app to run in the background (ie disable battery optimization), but every time I try to toggle on the "Allow QFile Pro to run in three background" in-app setting, it does not allow me to proceed. |
| 2024-11-14 |  | | Pretty nice app. I use it to connect to my QNAP nas on my local network. One complaint I have, however, is that when you add a local network device, the app doesn't check anything outside the phone's subnet. In my instance, the NAS is on a different subnet than my phone. The app would not find my NAS until I used an Ethernet dongle to plug my phone into the same subnet as the NAS. Once the app found it, I was able to connect my phone back to the other subnet and use the NAS. Manual option plz!! |
| 2024-10-26 |  | | Terrible experience, the GUI is completely inconsistent and every interaction with NAS is so slow. The application is reporting an "Error" with the transfer, but you are completely unable to find any details about what the problem was. At one point application decided to delete my primary copy on mobile as the best solution. One of the phones has connection issues, again I could not find any details. Please be extremely careful and aware that this is dangerous. I miss the Syncthing. |
| 2024-09-22 |  | | I'm disappointed with this App as a means to backup photos from phone to NAS. I've got about 60GB on the phone and it took four goes to sync. I couldn't specific errors, the app just seemed to stop syncing despite background permissions being granted. For such a feature rich NAS, I'm disappointed and hope QNAP sort this quickly. I can see from other reviews it's unreliable for many users. |
| 2024-09-17 |  | | The Auto upload of photo gallery only does the DCIM folder but ignores the Pictures folder on Motorola g84. After this option is set up there's only one extra folder option to set up for auto upload. This is a significant limitation on its usefulness. This app should extend the ability to set up more folders for auto upload e.g., documents, downloads etc. |
| 2024-08-30 |  | | Had a power outage that took down my NAS file structure. It was a reformat process to recover the drives. Reloaded all of my files back and downloaded Qfile pro, everything worked effortlessly. Tablet, and 2 phones syncing well. Time to get Laptop and desktop loaded to sync it will then all be available across all devices. Ready to also explore downloading my Google account, should be interesting. 16TB of cloud space awaits. |
| 2024-07-02 |  | | File upload kept failing on auto uploads, it shows the progress of upload and finishes but then it will show upload failed, what's the problem? I've seen reviews coming from 2021 and up until now it still wasn't fixed. In my 3000 file upload, half of it failed like like why?? They're the same location, file type, etc. This is very annoying. . Update: I logged out and logged in and it completes the upload but the problem comes back every now and then. |
| 2024-05-26 |  | | It does what I need it to, backup my phones pictures without hanging half way through like QuMagie does. It does prompt for an unavailable update, I'm on the current 4.1.3 and it says to update to 4.2.0 which is not on the play store, iOS has that version so I might edit this in a few days/weeks when it hits droid. |
| 2023-08-29 |  | | I LOVE my QNAP NAS - Truly I do; but QFile Pro stinks! Worst iteration of the app/product in my 10 years using QNAP products. Slower, more bloated, TERRIBLE menu structures/behaviors (some to the right, some are scroll up from the bottom, others are press-hold). Currently UNABLE to logout of a QNAP as one user and then edit the entry to connect as a different user - this is an essential process when troubleshooting with a novice user. Turn OFF Thumbnails! Go BACK to pre-Pro - QFILE Regular!!! |
