Great but needs background functionality
Quick and easy to use. Love that about it. But if you close the program it stops the server. Really need it to run in the background and/or open at login.
United StatesEasy and simple FTP server set up
I needed an easy way to set up an occasional FTP file transfer between my new mac and a few vintage Powerbooks, and this app does the job perfectly with Fetch 3.0.3 or Transmit on the OS 9 end.
United StatesLooks great but doesn't work on 10.16 (M1 Mac mini)
Unfortunately doesn't start up on the latest M1/macOS.
United StatesQuick and simple to Use
This app is so easy to make a simple FTP server if you just want to share a few files between computers without using a sneakernet to link them together.
United StatesMuch obliged
Like others here I went down the (familiar) homebrew path; homebrew's indispensible but for some reason, solutions like Pure-FTPd gave unpredictable, inconsistent, and mysterious results, were impossible to configure and diagnose, even after hours of work poring over the documentation. QuickFTP lives up to its name; got it working and transfering files off of vintage floppies using an old Power Macinintosh – fetch 3.0.1 – in less than three minutes. Thank you!

The program only binds to the Ethernet port and not wireless.
United StatesQuick and easy to bring up an simple FTP
As we known, FTP is unsafe than SFTP or FTPS, but we still need it for some other old devices, e.g. my old Dell Scanner. My Dell E515dw scanner can't work with my Macbook Big Sur(though it works well as a printer with my Macbook) because Dell didn't update their scanner driver for Big Sur. So I can't scan my file to my macbook. I also tried to scan and send through SMTP with Gmail, but Gmail only support SSL/TLS smtp, which doesn't supported by my old Dell Scanner. Finnally, I noticed that I can scan and send through FTP. Unfortunately, Big Sur removed the built-in FTP support. So I tried with thie QuickFTP. It's really easy to use and configure. Now I can scan my files and send to my macbook easily. Awesome! BTW, security tips: 1. Only start QuickFTP when you need it 2. Use another Port number instead of 21 if possible 3. Use a complicated password
