PHFor those who want to host their own FTP/HTTP/Webdav/TCP server the easiest way, using their smartphones/tablet, here it is using Mixplorer.

2. Open it, then click on the three dots at the top right, then click on Servers.
3. From here you can choose to run the servers that you want, but for our purposes we want to run the FTP server. So click on that. If you wish to edit some parameters before running then click on the pen beside it.
