Editor does not support straight / neutral / regular quotes; curly / smart quotes only. Breaks PHP. Had to switch to a competitor. It might take some time to get used to how copy and paste works in the editor. Other than these two things it is functional and reliable.
Best FTP App yet DEV COME BACK
Best messaging
I was worried at first as I seen the app hasn’t been updated in a year but this is on par with easyFTP probably one of the best FTP apps buy this if you need to transfer folders not just files!! I’ve been looking forever for something like this on my IPAD Pro
Need fixings Now

I paid for the app. It is not usable. - Connected via FTP but can't completely change into directory. The waiting circle icon kept spinning. - It seems sftp authenticated but never completed the connection. SCP does not work either. - I tested on both iPad2 64GB, iPhone 4S 64GB, iOS 5.1.1. No joy, I saw same exact issues. Please fix them ASAP!
Great for photos over SFTP
Scottford
I use this app to send photos from my iPad to my home file server using SFTP. It works great - very easy and intuitive to select photos and queue them up for transfer. I like that it allows me to create the SSH key pair elsewhere and import it into the app. That way I don't have to trust the app's key generation to be robust. The only other app I've found that can come close to this one for my purposes is Files Connect. This app handily wins because of its much better UI, key importing, and proper support of key passphrases. (Files Connect always saves the passphrase, so that anybody who steals my iPhone will have full access to my files.)
Great ftp app
TriNorm
I use this to get into my site and edit html. Works great for that with easy login, navigation, and in-app editing. A reviewer complained about passwords - it does allow the saving of passwords, so no issues there. It allows the creation of directories locally, and again; easy navigation, but the addition of remembering specific local directories per ftp account would be nice. Also the ability to drag-drop files around would be handy (in batches would be even better). But overall, very nice app for getting files up/downloaded, previewing, editing, etc. I've tried a couple others - haven't had anything else come close.
The one I am keeping
Kloomnik
This is the 5th FTP tool that I've tried, and it's the one that I am keeping. Earlier, I've tried iTransfer ($2.99), FTP Client Pro ($1.99), FTP 4U (free), and FTP Ready Lite (free). Some work, some don't, but all had user interfaces that are annoying, inconsistent, confusing and unnecessarily complex. It seems these guys have learned nothing from Apple, which made its name in large part based on the simplicity and elegance of its designs. This app has simple and rational design with just the features that you need -- it's a file transfer program -- you don't need a clock or a theme background! Things that could be improved: (1) the user manual is an atrocity to the English language; and (2) the menu for interacting with the Web server (nice feature!) is confusing. I would suggest something like: Transfer files: 1.Import files from a Web URL 2.Exchange files with a computer on local area network The latter should display a message such as "Open a browser on the other computer and enter this URL: http://10.1.0.xxxx:8080. You may then use the browser to exchange files between the computer and the iPad." BTW, Sometimes files transferred to the local storage are automatically uploaded to the FTP server? Also, "Finished uploading" has no effect. Not clear what closes this web server.

This works great once you get setup. I would prefer the ability to transfer files internally on the iPad without disconnecting from the server, but otherwise it is a god solution to transfer back and forth.
