OpenList-Mobile

Project Overview

OpenList-Mobile is OpenListTeam's mobile file-server app, based on the OpenList (formerly AList) project and written in Flutter. It puts a file-listing service inside your phone for LAN file sharing as well as remote access and online management. Android is supported today, while the iOS build is still experimental.

Put cloud-drive aggregation and file management in your phone, ready to serve anytime.

Key Features

• Built-in file server: the app itself is an OpenList service, with no separate server to set up
• LAN sharing: devices on the same network can browse the file list your phone provides
• Remote access: reach your files from outside with a public IP or forwarding
• Online management: mount storage and browse and manage files from the phone
• Multi-storage aggregation: mount and manage cloud drives and local storage through OpenList
• Multiple platforms: Android is stable while iOS keeps developing

Target Audience

• Users who want a file server on their phone
• Users who need to reach a self-hosted cloud drive on the go
• People already familiar with OpenList or AList
• Users who want quick LAN file sharing

Quick Start

1. Download the latest Android build from Releases and install it
2. Grant storage and network permissions and wait for the built-in service to start on first launch
3. Add and mount the cloud drives or local storage you need
4. On the LAN open the address the app shows in a browser to browse your files
5. For external access, configure port forwarding or a tunnel as prompted
6. Grab a new installer from Releases when you want to update

Core Advantages

• Server included: no separate OpenList deployment is needed; install and go
• Mobile-first: both the server and file management live in your phone
• Consistent ecosystem: it follows OpenList's mounting and management approach for easy migration
• Kept current: tracks upstream OpenList releases to stay functionally in sync

System Requirements

Notes

• The iOS build is still in development and neither complete nor fully stable

• Some cloud-drive mounts require authorization details as OpenList specifies
