Getting started with Zwind WebDAV Server

What Zwind does

Zwind WebDAV Server & Player turns an iPhone or iPad into a personal WebDAV server. You choose what to expose, start the server, then open the generated WebDAV URL from another browser, player, TV client, or compatible file app.

The same app can also browse WebDAV servers, play media, edit text files, map SMB shares, project RSS feeds, import Quark resources, and expose web media pages through .wm rules.

First run checklist

1. Install Zwind from the App Store.
2. Create a new WebDAV server entry.
3. Pick local folders, iOS Files sources, SMB shares, Quark imports, RSS marker files, or Web Media marker files.
4. Start the server.
5. Open the WebDAV URL from another device on the same network.

Start with a small local folder first. After that works, add more advanced sources such as SMB, RSS, Quark Search Import, or Web Media Projection.

Good first scenario

Create a server named Media, select a local folder with a few videos, and start the server. Open the WebDAV URL from a desktop browser or a media player. Once that works, add:

• An SMB share for NAS content.
• A .rss file for feed-to-WebDAV browsing.
• A .wm file for a supported Web Media Projection rule.
• An empty Quark search intent folder when you want Zwind to import matching resources.

What to use it with

Zwind is useful with ordinary WebDAV clients, desktop file browsers, mobile apps, and media players that can open WebDAV sources. The exact metadata and playback behavior depends on the client, but the server tree is intentionally familiar: folders, files, URL shortcuts, media entries, and resolver-generated resources.

Pricing note

Zwind is free to start. Premium unlocks multiple servers and advanced capabilities. The App Store page is the source of truth for current pricing.
