Customer request: "Being able to import Transmit favourites (or the exported favourites) would be pretty cool. I have a lot of FTP sites set up, and it could take me a while to add them all."

Textastic 10.9 now supports exporting and importing remote connections (SFTP, FTPS, FTP, and WebDAV).

Connections can be exported to a JSON file and imported again on the same or another device. Passwords can optionally be included and are encrypted with a passphrase.

While Textastic does not directly import Transmit’s proprietary export format, the JSON format is documented and designed to be editable by hand. This makes it possible to migrate or recreate existing connection setups with relatively little effort.

This should significantly reduce the work required when moving a large number of connections into Textastic.
