Synchronize Folder from Desktop Computer to iPhone #18

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

I've used other phones as a live backup - typically some desktop 
application that will sync files to a storage card on the phone.

With Finder, it would be very, very useful if we could navigate to a 
folder on our desktop and get the iPhone to replicate the contents from 
the desktop to the iPhone, keeping them in sync as things changed.

I would be willing to help implement this if you'd consider it a good 
feature within your app.

This requires the implementation of a file sharing protocol of some kind (ssh, 
ftp,
samba, etc. )  and is actually on the future features list.  I'll kick it up a 
notch
on the list.

You know, a desktop app could easily do this with sshfs.  sshfs with rsync would
handle this all transparently.  It wouldn't even need to involve MobileFinder.

Did you have something in mind on the client (iPhone) side?
