**Comparison with FTP:**
If used to view pictures, videos, logs, etc., the HTTP protocol is much more convenient than the FTP protocol. HTTP can open media and log files directly in the browser. With the help of some powerful functions of the browser, you can even mark pictures and videos directly. Because of security, more and more browsers are abandoning the FTP protocol.

Comments on HTTP File Server (via WiFi) for Android
★★★★★
Minimalistic design... and easy to operate... fast also. But doesn't have file preview
★★★★★
Its Pretty Good! Not That Its As Good As XMPP On A Computer, But It's Good! I Did Found Better HTTP Servers On The Play store, And This One Is From The 16 HTTP Servers I Tested Number 2!
★★☆☆☆
The app was described as free. I downloaded it and tried to configure it. A choice was offered: watch ads to configure once or upgrade to Pro version. Clicked on "watch ads" to be told that no ads were available. Uninstalled.
★★☆☆☆
Umm don't use this. The non-pro version opens your Android to security issues by forcing the root folder to be the device default, and you can't change passwords either.
★★☆☆☆
Stupid concept, watch ads to change settings.
