About SFTP-SAF
SFTP-SAF lets Android file managers and other apps that use the Storage Access Framework browse documents on an SFTP server. After the server is available through the provider, a compatible file picker can open remote files, and other apps can view or edit documents there. This allows remote files to be used through Android’s standard document-selection workflow rather than requiring every app to implement SFTP itself. SFTP is a method for transferring and managing files over a secure shell connection. SFTP-SAF acts as a documents provider for that protocol, bridging the remote server and apps that can work with Storage Access Framework documents. The supplied information says root access is not required. The app is useful when a user wants to open or edit server-hosted documents in an Android app that supports the system file picker. The available description does not specify server setup steps, authentication options, or offline caching behavior.
