The most common way to transfer files between an android smartphone and a computers is using a data cable or Bluetooth. To get added flexibility, some people use app that provide wireless synchronization between computer and the phone over a Wi-Fi connection.
All the above methods solve the purpose but have some disadvantage associated with them. While Bluetooth is very slow, data cable needs a wired connection. Wi-Fi sync apps do a fair job, but provide limited functionalities.
Today I will show you how you can access your Android device using a FTP connection and ease up the file transfer between the smartphone and the computer.
Using SwiFTP on Android
1. Download and install SwiFTP Server on the android device you would like to access as an FTP. SwiFTP is not available on Google Play Store, and you will have to install it manually by downloading the APK file from the developer’s page.
2. After the app is installed on your device, launch it. First, we will have to set up the connection parameters for the FTP connection. On the app welcome screen, tap the Setup button. Now configure connection settings like username, password, port number, mount location, etc. When you are done click on the save button to come back to the app welcome screen.
