Ratings and reviews

Most things work...But working on a pixel 9, we can't auto upload in the background. So whenever the app goes to the background and stays there for a minute or two, the upload will fail, waiting for you to pull the app back into the foreground. Please fix it and I'll update my rank. Edit: I've allowed app to run in the background (ie disable battery optimization), but every time I try to toggle on the "Allow QFile Pro to run in three background" in-app setting, it does not allow me to proceed.

The app no longer connects to my NAS. QManager logs in fine, I can log in via web, but Qfile says my credentials are invalid. Edit: I see that there was an update, but it does not fix my login issues. Everything else accepts my credentials except QFile. Notifications in the dashboard simply say "Failed to log in", providing no information of what might be causing this problem. My account is the only active administrator on the device.

I am not getting no more than the first three alerts. There is setting i need to adjust? My IOS device gets all the notifications. As of Nov 26 2025, no longer uploads photos or videos. I am able to do it manually but that is, not why I use this program. I have checked all permissions and access nothing has changed. note: had to turn phone off completely then back on, seems to have fixed it. iPhone version doesn't seem to have this issue.

What’s new

[Fixed Issues]
- Background tasks that were interrupted and stuck in "Waiting" status due to a NAS shutdown will now automatically resume after the NAS is restarted.
- Enabling "Generate thumbnails" on certain NAS firmware versions while files are being uploaded will no longer cause background tasks to fail with a "Permission denied" error.
