Honestly? I was fed up with existing iOS SFTP tools that didn't suit my needs. As a web developer and designer who has been building for the web since 1994 (when pages were grey and NCSA Mosaic was king), I know the importance of using something designed for professionals, not just a clunky file browser. I built LightTouch because I wanted server management that felt native, intuitive, easy, and actually useful on an iPhone or iPad.
This app is built for web developers, sysadmins, and content creators who need to make emergency edits, check logs, or manage files while away from their desk. If you need robust server access right in your pocket, LightTouch is for you.
Never get lost in folders again. The custom Miller column-style browsing makes navigating complex server directories fluid, visual, and completely intuitive.
Fix typos and check media instantly. Edit text and code files natively. Preview images directly on your device without needing to download them first.
Full control, light touch. Create new folders and files, upload and download files, and rename files and directories on your server with simple, native iOS gestures.
All your sites, one app. Securely save and switch between multiple SFTP connections with a single tap, and use the Quick Connection for connecting with minimal fuss.
Easily view and modify read, write, and execute permissions for any file or folder directly from your device.
