Very unintuitive method to choose files to transfer
DropCopy is even more difficult to use than Apple’s own dumb method to enter text to review this application. It took me quite a while just to figure out why I was unable to enter this text! I clicked many times in this “Review” segment of the dialog and nothing happed. Eventually I learned that I had to click in the rightside of the entry field! OMG. So stupid is Apple to let that bug persist.
As re the DropCopy. I was not able to see any way to transfer files from my iPhone, other than some photos, to my MacOS M1 and some text files that I transferred to iPhone from Mac. Moreover, when I selected multiple files only one file was transferred. Apparently each transfer overwrote the previous one. This a really user unfriendly app. I have other file transfer apps that are readily intuitive and “just worked” without reading any documentation, tips, or help info.

This is super useful and I use it every day
Stopped working on Tahoe 26.4
Update: Still not working on Tahoe 26.4.1 this morning after installation. May try delete and re-install and see if that works… most frustrating as this is an excellent app.
Tried adding IP addresses of other machines - no joy either.
Was working fine until ‘upgrade’ to 26.4, and now no joy. Clearly some network protocols were changed by Apple and DropCopy no longer sees other devices on network.
Hoping it can get fixed - as others have written, it’s a must-have app on all of my devises to shift files around.
