A home run

Well worth the price! I have used Transit FTP for Mac for years. The iPhone version is just as powerful, full featured, and reliable as the desktop version. Great support of Amazon S3 too. This software is incredible. It may seem pricey but if you rely on full featured FTP and/or Amazon S3 access, this app is worth gold. I have no regrets

Will not open certain files

I find that certain files with a ( in name will not open on iPad. Returns an error. That is my only complaint.

Great app

Transmits files reliably. Works with Panic Sync. Thanks, Panic!

Pro FTP app

This is a very high quality app. Very well written. Very powerful, you can do all sorts of file editing and management. I havent been using it long but I can tell I will be using it a lot. Thanks Panic, Inc for a quality app.

by far not as good as the MAC version

I am using Transmit on my Macbook since years: it is intuitiv and simply perfect. Compared to the Mac version: Transmit for iPad is extremely complicated. For example, I open iTunes and transfer a folder containing photos using Transmit app to the Transmit app in may iPad. itunes shows the folder correctly. However on the iPad in the Transmit app is no new folder. When I tap the + button I see the photos, and I could transfer each photo one by one. Impossible for 150 photos. I want to tap my folder to transfer the whole folder but I cant find it. Also very annoying is the fact that Transmit for iPad never remembers the password to my server. I don’t either, so I always have to look it up. Meanwhile I really hate Transmit for iPad and my next step is to replace it with something hopefully more intuitive.

Open remote files in other apps!

One of the unsung features of this app is the ability to extend *other applications* to be able to interact with remote files. Using the Document Picker functionality built in to iOS — the same thats used for browsing iCloud in apps that support it — you can open and save files from FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, and other servers from within other applications like Microsoft Office, Pixelmator, and more. This doesnt require launching Transmit to do so…it "just works." That feature alone is worth the purchase price!
