Doesn't Work. Using ChromeOS on a HP 14a 0022od chromebook. Refuses to connect. Tried my HTTP server AND FTP server. Neither worked. Tried those same servers in my web browser and connects immediately.
cannot connect ftp on CloudReady with this app
Apparently it does not support modern key exchange methods. See https://github.com/tjibbevanderlaan/chromeos-filesystem-sftp/issues/131 and http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
Doesn't work at all... Either no connection to sftp server or "time out".
"Connecting failed: -1 111" Which tells us exactly what? 7F-All!
As others have pointed out it won't connect to anything. Times out after a few seconds or throws an error in spite of correct info entered. Connect fine with filezilla and winscp on my mac and pc, respectively.
Does not work
A few "minor" bugs, like not saving credentials, make this app completely unusable.
Won't connect with ed25519 type keys.
Couldn't get it to delete a folder. Timed out.
It times-out after a few minutes every time, sometimes sooner; it is impossible to move large files and difficult to move lots of small files. Once the connection times out, some files are damaged or fail to transfer.
Always timed out after 5-10 secs. Verified my WiFi was working by using codeanywhere's FTP client.
Broken, can't establish a connection. "Nacl module crashed". "Failed to init SFTP session -25 11"
Does not work. It disconnects randomly and is not able to copy from Chromebook to SFTP server any file. It works better copyng from SFTP to Chromebook but is not reliable enough.
Doesnt work ... it doesnt even launch
Garbage. Can't even recognise a standard private key file that works perfectly elsewhere
Worked fine for a couple of months, but since recently it just won't connect to anything.
Really bad app. I does not work!!
can't initialize SFTP connection.
On ASUS C302ca I just get the error: hostent NULL 0 0
can't get it to work at all. Some directions would be nice. How do I specify the path to an ssh key? /Downloads/ssh/id_rsa ? ssh/id_rsa ? nothing works. On server that allows passwords the app just hangs at login.
Never connects
Tried to copy a file (quite a large one). It failed. Waste of time.
Can't make it work...
A shocking app!!! Constantly timesout and disconnects so have to mount/remount. Such a timewaster. Needs some option adding a connection timeout option.
not working
Refuses to mount ftp
Crashes often. Can someone please make an actual ftp/sftp client for chrome.
Did not even launch and no error messages either.
constantly throws errors, have to un-mount and remount, super annoying. works for 5 mins at a time
Does not work. HP Chromebook 14. Version 49.0.2623.95 (64-bit) Platform 7834.60.0 (Official Build) stable-channel falco Firmware Google_Falco.4389.92.0 Try to sign in get small window: "Attempting to mount instance" After short time, window goes away and nothing has happened.
not working ! empty frame / window...
Won't mount, he's saying that he is mounting, but nothing happens. In my file explorer on my chromebook nothing changed. I hope there will be a update or something to help me.
Dont work
Spent the best part of an hour trying to get this to work. When it did and said "successfully mounted," it did no such thing. Useless.
I won't start!

Worst app ever. It only works on PC, which I hate. Seriously, what is the deal with people ignoring macbooks these days? Everyone's like, "Oh, everyone obviously uses a PC!" Well some people don't have PCs.
