RemoteDisk

RemoteDisk turns any S3-compatible bucket or SFTP server into a native drive inside the iOS Files app. Browse, open, edit, and share your remote files from any app that supports Files — no separate viewer, no copy-paste workflow. Built natively for iOS 17+ with SwiftUI and Apple's File Provider framework, RemoteDisk feels like iCloud Drive for your own storage. — SUPPORTED BACKENDS — • Amazon S3 • Cloudflare R2 • Backblaze B2 • DigitalOcean Spaces • MinIO (self-hosted) • Wasabi, Storj, and any S3-compatible endpoint • SFTP servers (password authentication) — FILES APP INTEGRATION — Every connection appears as a drive in the Files app. Tap a file to stream it, long-press to pin it offline, or drag it between connections. Works with Preview, Markup, Quick Look, and every third-party app that reads from Files. — SMART SYNC — • On-demand streaming — files download only when opened • Pin files and folders for guaranteed offline access • Conflict detection with configurable strategies: server wins, local wins, keep both, or manual resolution • LRU cache eviction keeps your device from filling up • Background refresh keeps metadata current — CELLULAR-AWARE — Set per-connection policies for cellular data: block sync on cellular, cap file sizes, or allow everything. Never worry about a 2 GB upload draining your plan. — SHARE SHEET UPLOADS — Send files to a RemoteDisk connection from any app via the iOS share sheet. Upload photos, PDFs, documents, or anything else directly to the destination folder you choose. — SECURITY FIRST — • Credentials stored in the iOS Keychain, never in plain text • Shared keychain access group so extensions authenticate without re-entering secrets • No telemetry, no analytics, no third-party servers — your data goes only between your device and your storage — POWER USER FEATURES — • Custom endpoint URLs for self-hosted deployments • Multiple connections to the same provider with different credentials — LOCALIZATION — Full English and Simplified Chinese support with in-app language switching. — WHO IT'S FOR — • Developers who keep assets in R2 or S3 and want to edit them on iPad • Photographers backing up to B2 or Wasabi who need to preview shots on the go • Homelab users with MinIO or a self-hosted server exposed via SFTP • Anyone who wants their own storage to feel as native as iCloud
