BEST AIRDROP ALTERNATIVE AVAILABLE

This thing is awesome, I use it across my iPhone, iPad, MacBook and windows workstation, It sends huge amounts of files, text, images… Whatever immediately. Just like Airdrop; Only cross platform. Love. Highly Recommend. 10/10 productivity software.

Quick and Easy!!

Super easy setup and very quick transfer. Took my 5 minutes from start to finish!!! Can recommend

Brilliant 💯👍

I was looking for an easy way to transfer files, particularly movies, *from my laptop to my iPhone.

I looked at various paid apps., but there was always a catch with them.

Then I found LANdrop.
Brilliant 💯 👍

Two easy downloads, and no messy configurations or setting to navigate, it worked straight out of the box. And it’s free to use❗️
No damn rentware or expensive purchase options.

Thank you to the developers.

粘贴按键太小了

建议把点击“文本”弹窗里最小的“粘贴”按钮做大些,它是最常用的功能,我基本只用它同时完成粘贴和确定操作。这里的“确定”用于修改内容后,几乎用不上。“取消”按钮仅在误点进入界面时可能需要。总之,文本框旁这三个按钮中,“粘贴”应该最大,现在太小,点击不方便。

incredible app

i never leave app reviews but this app is genuinely incredible, super simple to use, works flawlessly and does things that cloud subscriptions charge for better for completely free, never had any issues with it either
