Bidirectional sync?

Post by pmw »

Does AndFTP support bidirectional sync, allowing the newest files/folders to "win", instead of always treating one side as the master?

No, currently it's mirroring. But we plan to have it in 3.0

Thank you. Please keep up the good work.

Your AndFTP is what's keeping me (and plenty of others, I am sure) from going to proprietary solutions like Dropbox. The world of SFTP needs solutions like yours, bringing convenient file synchronization to Android and other modern platforms. But bidirectional sync is a key feature.

Can you provide an estimate when 3.0 will be available? My fiance, who will now carry a tablet to school to take notes on, wants this feature to sync her notes between tablet and other PCs, so I of course would like this feature ASAP.

I would be happy to beta-test it for you if you're looking for beta testers.

Currently we have mirror (local/remote) sync only but two ways sync is coming.
