Easy NAS connects your iPhone to any SMB-compatible NAS drive or Windows PC on your home Wi-Fi. Browse shared folders, download files to your phone, and upload files from anywhere on your network — all without complicated configuration. Automatic server discovery finds your devices instantly, and saved credentials with auto-login mean you're one tap away from your files every time.
Connect to Synology, QNAP, Buffalo, Windows file shares, and any other SMB-compatible device on your network. Browse shared folders and manage files directly from your iPhone.
A hybrid scan combining Bonjour mDNS and a parallel IP range port scan finds every SMB server on your Wi-Fi automatically. No need to look up IP addresses or configure anything manually.
Download any file from your NAS and open or share it with iOS apps. Upload files from your iPhone straight to any folder on the server. A real-time progress indicator keeps you informed on large transfers.
Save your username and password for each server and enable auto-login to connect instantly on launch. Manage multiple servers and switch between them in seconds.
Once connected, Easy NAS retrieves the full list of shared folders from the server and lets you drill down through directories using a familiar navigation stack. Files and folders are sorted with directories first, so you always know where you are — no matter how deep the structure goes.
Easy NAS runs Bonjour service discovery and a concurrent parallel port scan of your local IP range (port 445) at the same time. Most SMB servers on your network are found within seconds of opening the app, and results update live as devices are detected.
Tap any file to trigger a download confirmation, then watch the circular progress ring fill up with a live percentage as the transfer runs. When the download finishes, the iOS share sheet opens so you can immediately open the file in any compatible app or send it wherever you need.
While browsing any folder, tap "Upload Here" to open the iOS file picker and select any file — photos, videos, PDFs, documents, or anything else. The file is transferred directly to the current server folder, and the directory refreshes automatically when the upload is complete.
Open the app and it automatically scans your Wi-Fi for SMB servers. If your server doesn't appear, tap "+" to add it manually with a name, host address, and credentials. Enable auto-login to connect instantly next time.
After connecting, the app lists all available shared folders. Tap to navigate into folders and subfolders until you reach the files you need. The navigation stack makes it easy to go back at any level.
Tap a file to download it — a progress ring shows transfer status and the iOS share sheet opens when done. To upload, tap "Upload Here" in the toolbar, pick a file from your iPhone, and it's sent straight to the current folder.
