Transfers on iPhone and iPad

Every copy goes to the Transfers tab. There you see how far each one is, pause it, or try it again. On an iPhone, the copy that runs also shows just above the tabs: tap it to open Transfers.

What the list shows

Now: the copies that run, wait or are paused, with a chart of the speed.
Needs you: the copies that failed, left some items out, or don’t match the original.
Done: the copies that finished.

Each row shows the name, the way it goes (for example web-01 → iPhone), how far it is, the speed and the time left. A folder also shows the file being copied, and how many files are done and how many are to go. Checksums match means AirSCP compared the copied file with the original (SHA-256): they are the same.

Steps

Swipe left on a transfer, or touch and hold it:

Pause, later Resume: a file goes on where it stopped; a folder starts again.
Cancel: stops it and removes what was partly copied.
Retry: runs it again. A file that was cut off goes on where it stopped.
Remove: takes it off the list. Clear Done takes off every finished one.
Show Details: says what went wrong, in the tools’ own words.

When you leave AirSCP

iOS stops apps that aren’t on screen. So when a copy starts, AirSCP asks iOS to keep the copies going after you leave it, and iOS shows their progress.

iOS can still stop them: when you stop them in its progress, or when it needs to. Then they pause, and keep what they have copied. Back in AirSCP, Transfers says that iOS paused them. Tap Resume All: files go on where they stopped.

For big copies, keep AirSCP open.

Tips

Each server copies one transfer at a time; different servers copy at the same time.
When you come back to AirSCP, it checks each connection and connects again by itself if it was lost.
The tray is at the top of Transfers too. See Carry files with the tray.
