Affordable but some major features doesn’t work properly
Calm Avenger Burgundy
Automatic Camera upload functionality fails to upload some photos and videos. It is difficult to scroll through all images and identify which are failed to upload. Some PDF files fail to load for previewing and instead a black page is shown. But the service is very affordable and can be reliably used for storing documents and media that you upload manually.
Crashing
st_rainger
The app crashes when you try to upload stuff with the current few versions of IOS. This is making it very very difficult to upload my photos and videos I pay filen to host. This is shaping my opinion of this company. I’ve tried different settings, networks, etc. It just crashes whenever accessing photos from my albums after a like 20 seconds. So even if I select photos to upload and it starts uploading it’ll crash. I’m having to keep re-opening the app over and over and over to get a few photos to actually go through. I’ve restarted over 60 times trying to get some vacation photos up as it uploads like 1 photo per crash. I have full access to my photos in my settings, my phone and the app are fully up to date, I’ve done more troubleshooting than I probably should have.Please fix this broken application.
Reliable and secure
First Time to Apple
Really appreciate having alternative cloud storage options that are reliable, secure and privacy preserving. I found Filen after shutting down my iCloud that was spamming me by Apple. Do you need a way to backup your iphone photos without paying thousands of dollars to a multi-trillion dollar company? This cloud service makes a great backup option! Great customer service too, I had reached out more than once and the kind people there were quick and efficient at getting my issues resolved quickly. I highly recommend this. Thank you Filen.
Only crashes
jakarr
I just started using this service, and I want to like it so bad. The Linux desktop app works well for me so far, but I haven't been able to use the iOS app here successfully at all. My first real use case (and reason for signing up) is to share large video files (for example, a much longer than necessary elementary school musical), beyond what Ente supports. But attempting to do literally anything with the files mov files uploaded from Linux results in either a hang or a crash. I hope this isn't the rewrite that I've seen discussed in places. I guess I can look forward to that.
The long awaited update is here — the app has been rebuilt from the ground up.
• Completely new design — cleaner, faster, and easier to get around
• New core — encryption, uploads, and downloads now run on our new Rust engine, built for speed and reliability
• New features — redesigned photos, media gallery, offline files, notes with rich text editing, chats, audio playlists, document scanning, and much more
• Huge performance improvements — snappier browsing, faster transfers, and instant thumbnails, even in very large directories
• Countless bug fixes and stability improvements across the entire app
Same promise as always: end-to-end encrypted, zero knowledge, open source.
