“FTP’s popularity for general downloading files has declined in
recent years. However, it remains a great way of moving large files
and represents one of the quickest ways to transfer files to and
from Android devices. Of course, FTP is not the only way of
transferring files on the Android platform. We particular like
sending files using the Bluetooth File Transfer app which uses the
OBEX protocol.

“To provide an insight into the quality of software that is
available, we have compiled a list of 6 top FTP tools for Android.
We have selected the finest dedicated FTP clients and servers, as
well as our favorite FTP utility. Hopefully there will be something
of interest here for anyone who wants to transfer files with the
minimum of fuss and bother. FTP clients are included in some file
managers, with File Expert and ES File Explorer being notable
examples.”
