### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-05-26, version 2.0.158*

Won’t recognize 2nd iMac on same network

### 1/5 — HELP

*2025-07-28, version 2.0.158*

I DOWNLOADED THE SOFTWARE ONTO MY MAC LAPTOP, but recently got rid of my android so I didnt need the application anymore, however, when I go to uninstall its saying it won’t because its not downloaded, however when I go to the App Store, its saying it is.. how do I remove the app from my Mac?

### 1/5 — App unusable

*2025-06-04, version 2.0.158*

Great concept and a nice basic interface but the app is barely responsive. it’s like running in molasses on an M2 Mac. Can’t typing pairing codes in because it takes 5 minutes for the input to respond if at all. No updates in 9 months.

### 1/5 — Not Worth it

*2024-08-16, version 2.0.154*

Crashes oftenly and very slow in transfering files. The file speed transfer is hardly 1.3 Mbps.

### 1/5 — Freezes and doesn't work

*2024-02-04, version 2.0.151*

After launching the app, it just freezes. I can't press any buttons or do anything meaningful. For the first few seconds, it seems to work but then after a few seconds it just freezes. Almost like it's stuck with some code with an infinite loop.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2023-06-04, version 2.0.146*

Easy to install on iPhone & iMac. I found it easy to send 38 photos from iPhone to iMac, but it got stuck on "connecting" for a very long time with no phohos transferred.

### 2/5 — It may send files i.e. one in three arrived but ever finding them is another issue.

*2022-10-18*

Title covers it; some competing Apps. at least seem to have the transferred files in their cache i.e. only available via opening that App.  This one apparently doesn't.

### 3/5 — close but no cigar

*2024-05-03, version 2.0.154*

well it was nice finding an app that lets me transfer between android and iOS finally (for free, actually, instead of all the liars out there who let you 'download for free' but then you have to make a purchase to actually do anything with it. pesky scammers). But its being all buggy. At first, things seemed to be working smoothly. I successfully connected my macbook and android phone, but couldn't transfer from my mac to my phone. I tried the other way around, and I was successful in transferring from my phone to my mac. And then the app crashed (on the mac), and I've tried reopening it, and it either will open but nothing is functional, or it just won't open at all. Such a shame, this app showed so much potential.

### 4/5 — Does the job

*2025-04-13, version 2.0.158*

App crashes sometimes, but most of the time it does what it is supposed to. Recommended for those whose airdrop is blocked.

### 5/5 — File transfer

*2026-01-02, version 2.0.159*

This app is fantastic! Simple and quick.

### 5/5 — Easily my most useful app

*2025-04-17, version 2.0.159*

Using this app to transfer big files from my Windows PC to my iPhone (so I can actually send them over iMessage, save them on my phone via the files app, etc.) has been an absolute game changer… and I’m so appreciative of this developer for putting this out there for free I will not forget about this legend for being real enough to open source this.

One small issue though that I only ran into recently with trying to send vertical 4K resolution renders from DaVinci resolve (~1GB/min video) — right when the transfer finishes, I click on the file to save to files, and then instantly my screen goes black (as if it auto locked… the app doesn’t crash though), then when it turns back on, the files gone… but idc if you ever fix that bc I’ll deal with that being the only issue I’ve ever had haha

### 5/5 — Super useful

*2024-09-13, version 2.0.159*

My personal devices are all Apple and my work laptop is Windows. This app makes sharing links, pics, files, etc. across platforms almost as seamless airdropping between Apple devices. Saves a ton of time and headaches.

### 5/5 — apps works great

*2024-07-06, version 2.0.154*

Not sure if this is a gratis effort by the dev, or if they will rug it in some way.  Right now - the app works great.  I was able to transfer some large files between devices.  On the laptop you need to enable receiving.  The mobile device try to do local discovery on the network.  There is a pairing process where you sync pins, which I guess requires a developer-run server that manages discovery.

### 5/5 — Flutter   open

*2022-11-17, version 2.0.142*
