Why it wins

A desktop file transfer client built for clear control.

WahooFtp is designed for teams and solo operators who need a Mac FTP client that makes remote file management, uploads, downloads and transfer progress easy to understand.

01 — Visibility

The queue never lies.

Queued, running, completed, skipped, and failed items stay on screen with progress and timestamps. No mystery spinner. No silent miss.

02 — Memory

Hosts you can reopen in one click.

Save host, protocol, user, and password. Edit later. Delete when a project ends.

03 — Dual pane

Compare, then move.

Browse both sides at once. Upload and download with arrows, drag-and-drop, or the toolbar.

04 — Guardrails

When a file already exists, you decide — once, or every time.

Replace prompts include a remember-this-choice option so a 200-file batch does not become 200 interruptions.

Protocols

One Mac file transfer client for FTP, FTPS and SFTP.

Use the same workspace for legacy FTP servers, encrypted FTPS sessions and SFTP over SSH.

Port 21

FTP

Classic servers, still everywhere. Browse, rename, delete, and create folders without leaving the dual pane.

TLS

FTPS

Encrypted FTP when the host requires it. Same workflow, safer session.

SSH 22

SFTP

Move files over SSH with the same queue, the same panes, and the same saved profiles.

How it works

Four moves. Then you are shipping.

  1. Connect Choose FTP, FTPS, or SFTP. Hit Connect. Watch the status go live.
  2. Aim Open the local folder and the remote path you actually need.
  3. Move Drag, multi-select, or use the center arrows. Folders come with their children.
  4. Confirm The queue records progress and outcome. Refresh and see it on the other side.
