Primitive FTPd

FTP server
A simple FTP and SFTP (SSH file transfer) server. Allows to exchange files with
other machines over WiFi. No more USB cable searching. Runs without root
privileges and is not started when device boots: Control yourself when the
server runs. However, while it runs it prevents standby to avoid long uploads
and downloads to abort.

Versions

Although APK downloads are available below to give you the choice, you should be aware that by installing that way you will not receive update notifications and it's a less secure way to download. We recommend that you install the F-Droid client and use that.
