Most versatile file transfer app

iStorage has both client and server file transfer software built in. This means that one can be on the iPhone and upload/download files to a remote host. It also means that one can be on another host and upload/download files to the iPhone. Most file transfer apps for the iPhone only allow uploads/downloads from either the iPhone or the remote host, not both. iStorage lets you do it either way, which I find super useful. iStorage supports FT, WebDave, and iDisk. So I can access my iDisk and remote FT servers from my iPhone and I can access my iPhone from my laptop if need be. Furthermore, iStorage can do this over wi-fi, 3G and Edge. So as long as I can see the other host on the internet, I can access it. It also works between iPhones for iPhone-to-iPhone file exchanges over wi-fi. It can download files from web pages (the ones that you click on to download normally). A handy feature for retrieving manuals etc for storage on the iPhone. File transfers are not limited to one file at a time, but can be entire directories/folders if so desired. Lastly, iStorage also allows editing of text files, either locally or remotely. I can ftp into my web server and edit the html files there on the server, for example. On the downside, yes, it has its occasional crash. The interface is a little obscure in some places (but usually decipherable if you are familiar with FTP etc). I know of no other iTunes app that has this kind of flexibility in transferring files with the added ability of being able to edit text files.

掂呀!

Its really work on my iphone, 真係得架 ;)

Great Potential

This program is worth the price for its ability to act as a webdav and FTP client. Being able to download, edit and upload files is fantastic. I would give it four stars if it were more stable, because it is crash prone. Besides the instabilty, its biggest flaw is that secure webdav (over https) simply doesnt work. I believe this is a genuine problem, because I have tested with two different webdav sites. If secure webdav is required, you should not download iStorage. I have not yet tested secure FTP. The interface is easy to use, but could look a little nicer. It is surprising how much attractive graphics and animations can improve the user experience. For future versions, the ability to open password protected compressed files would be useful, as would support for other types of secure FTP. A recent update caused all my document files to be deleted. This is a problem that will need to be fixed in future updates. In the meantime users need to make sure their iStore files are backed up before updating.

best mp3 playing apps in apps store

best mp3 playing apps in apps store, play mp3 files continuesly. Other file manager -- Files and Airesharing still lack this feature. WebDav server works well on windows xp with iphone os 2.2.1 firmwire.

Nice App

I love the zip and email function, it enable me to send mulit photos by using my own smtp. GOOD Work. However, I found that if the photo/ picture is large is resolution, it cant import to the iPhone via the iStorage....

nice app

just install mine, works great. I love the FTP features, but I hope the next update will have email function. great work guys.

This app is not ready and the feature idisk

iStorage gives the possibility to access idisk. I want this .... iDisk: From to moment you configure it (followed setting from there website) , the application stays in status "connecting" ....10minutes (set user name without @me) After swithing to home screen , opening the iStorage again the app closes (crash) if iDisk is openend => feature unusable Webdav If you start webdav , becarefull : do not delete "Documents" the app crashes and needs to be reinstallalled For the moment my money is spend for something that doesnot work.

Best file app available

Ive read the reviews and tried almost all the alternatives. This app is the only one that will connect to MobileMe, FTP, and web directories, as well as download and UPLOAD files, including .docs, Pages/Numbers and PDF. The users who had problems might not have known how to configure FTP access. It will also move, rename and delete, as well as store files locally. Ive had no problems, though I wish it would view rtf files... Try this: search the app store for "FTP iDisk"...(iow, this app does FTP & DAV) The app could use a few tweaks, but what they have already is well beyond the competition. Well worth the $.

The MOST USEFUL application ever

I have been using this application for a few hours and it is hard to describe how great it is. Some of the best features are the following ones: 1) I can store as many files as I want on my iphone (all my school work and other projects, pictures etc). 2) I can download any MS or PDF file from a web page directly into my iphone and read later. 3) The best feature is, I can send any of these files as an attachment from my own email. This is the first time I see such a feature in an iphone app. So, finally, the iphone became as useful as a blackberry. If anything happens to this feature, I will throw this app in the trash (along with the phone - what is its use if I cant send an attachment). Finally, I am a very satisfied iphone AND itunes customer. Congratulations to the developers. Hope you fix the few bugs that keep crashing the app.

Buggy

It is a little buggy. Sometimes my folders show up twice and text does not line up. Otherwise it is a nice app. 3 stars until these bugs get fixed.

Lifesaver

In the middle of a project my Internet connection went down. I found this app which let me download and upload work from my computer to an FTP. A few issues, but far better than simple apps like datacase or airsharing.

A exelent app

This is a exelent app a must have!

Finally! iDisk Support

One problem! When I add an FTP account the program crashes constantly....... However, I can finally access my iDisk! Thank You!!! Get that FTP problem fixed and youll have a very popular program.

Extremely flexible

For file management and light editing this app provides almost all you need. My only gripe is the drill down necessary to retrieve a document quickly or write one. All the communication options work OK, maybe not as smoothly as Mobilefiles Pro, but editing ability alone makes up for that. I would also like to see more effective search - it only looks at titles instead of the body of the text. All in all a solid app.

Highly recommended

iStorage has become my most used file management app (and Ive bought most of them). It isnt the best at everything but Ive found it the best overall. I need access to iDisk and other WebDAV services. I also have HTML content and its nice to view (with all associated files) and edit. Favorites include: + simple interface (except opening a file - see below) + email based on your own SMTP server - very nice + nice full screen document viewing + diverse remote server options (WebDAV, FTP) + HTML files read linked .css and .js (youd be surprised how many dont) Wish-fors include - opening a file is clunky as it provides 5 file options (confusing for casual users) - the browser is functional but cluttered ( full-screen web viewing as nice as document viewing would be very helpful) - occasional crashing (although the next startup sends a report to the developer) - visually indistinct icon is too busy and gets lost in the crowd Nice Work!

Good, but could be better

I used this app for a while, until I discovered ReaddleDocs. Theyre similar, but Readdle has a better web browser, and you can forward email attachments to your free online storage for transferring to your iPhone.

They cannot download file.

they cannot download file. I feels like the company is cheating on us for useless apps.

Lousy App!

Full of bugs. Many features wont work!

Failure after iPhone OS 3.0

Immediately after upgrading to OS 3.0 on my iPhone 3G this app started failing. I tried to add an FTP site and it crashed. I reinstalled the app and it adopted a Sirius XM app icon and continues to crash whenever attempting to add any more than one network item. I deleted it from my phone and will watch for an update in iTunes.
