How to Browse and Transfer Files over SFTP on iPhone

TL;DR

ServerPanel Premium adds an SFTP file browser, so you can browse, upload, and download files on your server straight from your iPhone — no laptop needed to grab a log or push a config.

Steps

With Premium, open the SFTP file browser for a server.
Browse the server’s directories.
Download a file to your device, or upload one to the server.
Manage files without opening a laptop.

Why it works this way

Sometimes monitoring isn’t enough — you need to grab a log, edit a config, or push a file, and firing up a laptop for that is overkill. ServerPanel’s SFTP browser puts file transfer in the same app as your dashboards and terminal, over the same secure SSH connection, so a quick file task is doable from your phone. It’s Premium because file transfer is a power-user need.

Tips & edge cases

Grab logs to your device for a closer look.
Push a config without a laptop in a pinch.
Premium feature, alongside port forwarding and login scripts.
