It is hard to separate the app from the device so I will review both.
The app pros
- reasonably straight forward to use
- nicely warns when it can not access the device
- video is uploaded at full resolution
- plays all the music, videos, and pictures I have tried
The app cons
- when uploading pictures it reduces the image size by 70%
- the "more" button is where you access device settings and how you get to your camera role to upload pictures and videos. This is far from obvious and not easy to find.
- you have to use the refresh button to get any content to show up and there is nothing to inform you of this.
I would give the app 3 stars over all
The device pros
- no setup required
- built in USB cable looks very durable
- very compatible as a USB storage device plugged into my computer and my other devices (router, stereo, media player)
- 19MBs read speed on USB
- reasonable wifi strength
- connected devices can see each other so you can use this to make a small network between 5 devices. Great for syncing your phone to your laptop or tablet
- perfect size to carry around
Device cons
- sdhc cover is a little hard to open
- only states compatibility with 32gb cards so I assume no SDXC support
- no instructions included with the device, you have to find it online. A PDF included on the drive would have been nice.
- wifi range is about 15 feet. But this probably saves battery power so maybe not a bad thing
- no configuration web page
- computer can not upload files over wifi only over USB
I would give the device 4 stars over all. And I would by it again.
