hey 👋 I use this app very frequently and really enjoy it, but in the recent updates, the Control Centre button has been removed. This change has made the app much harder to use, and it's very inconvenient. Please bring back the Control Centre in the next update. It was a very useful feature!

I liked the old interface... very simple, only a START button to push. And only the IP & port to deal with next. I created a PC app and an Android app. Data needs to be transferred from PC to Android. The PC side can send FTP, but the phone app is small and simple, no room for FTP there. Your FTP tool has filled that gap admirably. The user doesn't have to know anything. 1. Click Start, it's the only thing on the screen. 2. Shows IP & port... input them on the PC. 3. Click transfer on the PC. Works great! The simpler the FTP tool, the better!... if we want a lot of features in the interface, there are other apps that do that better. Keep your goal to be #1 easiest to use FTP... hide the new options and details on menus, keep them out of the interface... my opinion!
