Just let me use the app version that works on my phone. Should be able to hit cancel and the app stay open to use ### 4/5 — アプリが落ちる *2026-07-11* 古いiPadで使用しています。iPad OS15.8.8で使っていますが、先日のアップデート以降アプリが開けなくなってしまいました。（アプリをクリックするとブラックアウトしてホーム画面に戻る） アプリを削除して再インストールしても同じです。 OSが古い為もう使えないのでしょうか？ ### 3/5 — 2026/7/8 故障: Appが立ち上がらない *2026-07-09* 今まで順調に使っていましたが、7/8急に立ち上がらない。 故障は、単純に立ち上がらない。 使用端末: iPad Pro OS: 17.7.11 処理方法: Appを削除して、入れ直した、 iPadの電源を入れ直した、 ストレージを整理した。 →Appはやっぱり立ち上がらない。 ご確認お願いします。 **Developer response:** ご不便をおかけしており、誠に申し訳ございません。 アプリ起動時に問題が発生している場合は、確認のため、ご利用端末の機種名、OSバージョン、Send Anywhereアプリのバージョン、問題が発生している画面のスクリーンショットまたは画面録画を添えて、Send Anywhereサポートまでお問い合わせください。 お問い合わせ先：support@send-anywhere.com お送りいただいた情報をもとに確認し、ご案内いたします。 ### 2/5 — I'm not sure what happened.. *2026-07-06, version 23.7.2* This app was working wonderfully for me for months but this most recent update actually bricked my app :( I've tried to uninstall and everything, but the app simply opens to a black screen and crashes now. None of my other apps are doing this, so I don't think it's my phone. Makes me sad ### 3/5 — Send Anywhere broken on most recent update. *2026-07-02, version 23.7.2* I have an older iPad Pro on iPadOS 16.7.16 and am a long time Send Anywhere user. The most recent update seems to have broken the app which now crashes on startup. Any chance this will be fixed? ### 3/5 — Aggressive Werbung *2026-05-23* Die App selbst funktioniert wie versprochen. Gut, etwas umständlich, aber das hat sicher technische Gründe. Die Werbung ist allerdings teils unerträglich. Mir ist schon klar, dass sich Apps irgendwie finanzieren müssen, aber die Aggressivität mancher Werbeanzeigen ist unterirdisch. Da werden Nutzer bewusst auf die falsche Fährte gebracht, teils lässt sich die Anzeige nicht einmal am X schließen oder führt direkt zum Werbeträger. Verwirrend auch die Barcode Funktion: hier wird ständig auf die QR Barcode Scanner App verwiesen, aber die ist völlig unnütz für das Senden und Empfangen der Files. Teilweise wird die gesamte Aktion blockiert. Bitte diese unlautere Werbung einschränken, falls hier Möglichkeiten bestehen! Danke! **Developer response:** Hi, thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry for the inconvenience caused by the ads. We understand that some ads may feel misleading, difficult to close, or disruptive to the file sending and receiving experience, and this is not the experience we want to provide. We are reviewing this issue and working with our advertising partners to reduce inappropriate or overly intrusive ads and improve the overall ad experience in the app. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. We’ll continue working to make Send Anywhere easier and more comfortable to use. ### 2/5 — tons of Ads *2026-05-04, version 23.6.1* For each photo, you need to watch 30s ads ### 2/5 — Too many afds *2026-04-30, version 23.6.1* Hope you do better then I did. Adds popped up used entire screen, couldn’t do anything but close app. ### 2/5 — It doesn’t work *2026-04-19, version 23.6.1* Files stuck on the application and there is no possibility to download it from the application 🥲 ### 1/5 — Shocking *2026-04-16, version 23.6.1* Rubbish!! Codes and QR codes etc is BS. Nothing is quick with you w@nkers! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — File crashes upon opening on iPad *2026-07-13, version 23.7.2* I can’t even open the app anymore on my iPad Pro 10.5 . I already reinstalled the app. ### 1/5 — App won’t start *2026-07-13, version 23.7.2* No matter what I do the App won’t start ### 1/5 — App crashing after upgrading to latest version *2026-07-11, version 23.7.2* I am using iPad 6th Generation and on iPadOS 17.7.11. After upgrading to latest version app is crashing on startup. Please could you address this issue asap as I use this app a lot. ### 1/5 — App is Broken 7-7-26 *2026-07-07, version 23.7.2* Updated app, deleted app, reinstalled app and it just flashes on iOS and never opens. It looks like they broke it ### 1/5 — Latest update *2026-07-06, version 23.7.2* Unable to open the app anymore ### 1/5 — New update makes it crash instantly *2026-07-05, version 23.7.2* Title ### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne plus sur mon iPhone *2026-07-04, version 23.7.2* Je vois l’appli, je clic dessus pour l’ouvrir et rien ne se passe. Avant il fonctionnait bien. Déçu. ### 1/5 — Forced update *2026-06-21, version 23.7.1* Forcing me to Update the app when it doesn’t function the way the original app did giving a multi delete. Option is not really an update. Outside of that I do love the app. I’ve been using it for years. I would definitely recommend it, but don’t update and take away features. Now the app is not working at all. I used to just be able to pick from a history of devices and send it now. I have to scan the QR code every single time if not, it doesn’t work. Why for an update on me that’s not working. Please fix it. ### 1/5 — The worst APP, in the App Store with Intrusive ads, video take over ads that play when typing *2026-06-19, version 23.7.1* 끔찍한 광고. 쓸모없는 앱. Yes ads are crucial to revenue. Malicious, take over screen ads are bad practice, a horrible experience, ensure people cannot use an app and should not be used. It makes me loose trust in company if they cannot do an ad experience right, why would I ever trust them by paying? Further still, I probably am not getting the full experience, all I am getting is angry and closing the app to find another way to get things done. Holy carp a take over video ad that you CANNOT exit out of !!! ### 1/5 — Does not let me download videos *2026-05-08, version 23.6.1* S ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I really like it *2026-08-12, version 23.7.3* Thank you ### 5/5 — Simple, no account required, straight to the point. *2026-08-10, version 23.7.3* Everything you need to know about this app is in the title of this review.
