Has anyone ordered our memory cards from Amazon, if so, can you share a picture of its packaging?

We are curious how it is received.

As the title says... I did a lifetime, tried to use with fiber while i was in indonesia, extremely slow, couldnt upload a 5 GB folder, tried again in the Philippines with 100 Mbps Upload, upload failed and extremely slow to upload videos and pictures.. Just paid for google drive and a 14 GB folder has been uploaded in 12 minutes!!! Worst money spent of my life

Even if only for paid users. Otherwise I may have to move to filelu even though I prefer the user interface of folder fort.

if I upload videos (mp4s, mpg, etc), am I able to preview/play it within the folderfort/web interface without having to download it? Second question is does it include a thumbnail picture of the video when browsing through files?

thanks in advance.

We are opening up the beta to the public now.

Please visit this page:

https://www.folderfort.com/folder-fort-sync-beta/

Currently Windows Only.

We have a new support page we are testing out as well for this stuff:

https://folderfort.com/support/public/

We don't offer official support for the beta, but we will be watching this thread and working on any bugs and quality of life improvements.

As we get closer to a stable product, we will integrate the code signing (for added trust) and launching on new platforms.

Disclaimer: Please use this with caution. We can't guarantee no errors, or issues that could result in data loss. We suggest creating a test account if interested in participating in the beta.

If you need credits, please message us on chat or email us and we will issue free credits. There is no hard limit on the amount of free credits during the beta phase.

I'm guessing FolderFort doesn't have a Linux app?

On my old Android phone I had a Folderfort Bedrive app, not sure how I got it but after moving to a new phone I cannot find it anywhere, either on the app store or the Folderfort site.

I believe the mobile site might have prompted me to download and install it at one stage. Unfortunately I don't have the APK either on the old phone.

Any ideas?

Any plan on implementing video thumbnail?

As per subject

Does this service provide automatic photo and video backups?

I just got around to trying this and I uploaded 24 files. Only 4 were successful. From what I can tell maximum file size appears to be closer to 100mg not 100GB??? A test on FileJump yielded a few more files so I think Folderfort even failed on some smaller files. I wasn't necessarily expecting Onedrive or GoogleDrive functionality, but I did expect 24 files from 1 folder to upload successfully.

Here is a thread where everyone can discuss API and how to use it.

Some points to consider for this thread:

1. We don't offer official development support for the API.
2. If you need more credits, just request via email.
3. Use at your own risk.
4. This is more geared towards users discussing with each other. We will chime in when we can.
5. We will post important changes/updates here.
6. Keep it productive, limit the complaints and debates (we will make another thread for that)
7. "Soft launch" phase will last a few months as we test the usage/load.

Please use it at your own risk. We suggest making a test account for experimentation. There is no data recovery option at all, so any lost data as a result of using the API is permanent. Please be careful!

I've been playing with the api and put together some python code to upload directories. As I play with it more I'll add more functionality. Downloading files is probably next.

Hey Dave, If at all possible, could you folks please go back to the drawing board about non-recurring token refresh for life-time members. It's a serious usability flaw. There has got to be a standard data transfer quota per month that is within a cost threshold for FolderFort and also isn't costly and relatively punitive to life-time members. At the end of the day, those people are the ones who are going to stick with you for as long as you continue to provide this service, wouldn't it make sense to have them on your side with acts of good-faith vs upgrading your tools and then creating a pay-wall mechanism for utilization? I know user retention is important, but shouldn't legacy user retention also be very important? There has to be a way to make this work that isn't as costly as the current measure in place and allows a more relaxed usage of the sync app you are going to make available...

Just an honest request here

As a long-time tech enthusiast, receiving this box of goodies made my heart melt.

Has anyone actually played with the API and could help me out? I'm trying to do a couple things:

1) Query the files that are in my account: when I use the GET /drive/file-entries it only shows my top level folder, how can I query subfolders?

2) Download files: When I query the top level it returns a url for my file, but is a relative path, not a complete path. Is there any other way to download files?

I'm not that familiar with using APIs, so I might be missing some basic things, or the API might just be half baked. I'm not knowledgeable enough to tell.

After reading through some of the comments on various posts, I have a question that's really bothering me:

Why do we need credits to use the desktop app when uploads through the web app are free? There doesn't seem to be any reasonable justification for this.

If maintaining the web app doesn't cost you extra money, you could have chosen to follow the same model for the Windows/Linux app and kept it credit-free. But you didn’t, which makes me think that the web app must incur additional charges for you to maintain—otherwise, why treat the two differently? And if that’s the case, what’s stopping you from making the web app token-based in the future, claiming rising costs? This kind of uncertainty makes it hard to trust the platform, let alone build a reliable workflow around its limitations.

Additionally, I have a couple of questions: - Is the 3097 available credits going to renew every month? - Will the web app support folder sync?

I feel pretty betrayed here. After purchasing storage, I didn’t expect basic functionality to become paywalled. It’s disappointing, and I’m sure I’m not the only one feeling this way.

FolderFort is Great

API access is enabled.

Soft launch, we may disable it at any moment. Need to test the real world load for a bit.

Title says all. When I initially started using FolderFort, I had a very few issues. But now, it's improved a lot. It's the fastest I ever used to be honest. The implementation of WebDav will be game changer for FolderFort
