Finding a new transfer program 
You guys had something good and messed it up.

### 4/5 — Simple Transfer v4.0.1 Review

*2026-01-25, version 7.5*

I really loved v3.X.X, it’s just the UI wasn’t as clean as it could be, but the transfer speeds whew. Lightning fast. 

Now with 4.0.1, UI is super clean but MAN the transfer speeds are a ton slower and idk why! Super super slow.

Note that my connection is and has always been via USB as well for a faster connection compared to the WiFi option, yet this is truly super super slow. For example, currently transferring a 548MB video from my iPhone to computer and it took nearly 4 minutes.. just for that. Way faster prior to update.

### 3/5 — Transfer used to be good

*2024-02-10, version 7.4.10*

But now it isn’t. It has become very temperamental and doesn’t connect easily.

### 5/5 — Советую

*2023-05-03*

Отличная программа для перекачивания видео фото на пк и обратно

### 5/5 — Worth every penny

*2023-03-08, version 7.4.9*

Simple to use and it works very very well.  Don’t know what I would do without it.

### 5/5 — Best Transfer app!!!

*2023-02-03, version 7.4.9*

This app is amazing. It beats all the other photo/video transfer apps I’ve found. Don’t hesitate to give this a try. The rating says it all and it’s worthy of ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I wish I could try the photo cleaner portion before paying the $9.99. Needs a 3 day or similar trial before purchasing. 🤔😬 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

### 2/5 — Still broken

*2022-12-05, version 7.4.9*

If it can’t copy all of the files it now shows/marks the ones it couldn’t download at the end but selecting the option to download those, say 3 failed files, still completely restarts downloading the thousands of files. Very frustrating, cancelling the new redownload of all the files clears the option to identify and download the failed files. So you can start over waisting hours or just give up and lose the files, since you need the space more. It’s better than iTunes, but it’s not great. Response to developer. I selected the Green button that said 3 items download, it proceeded to re-download the 2045 items, they did not all have check boxes on them either, I scrolled through and found one that did I didn’t try to find the other 2, I just selected the 3 items download option. Cancelling the download cleared the marked files that had errored on download and I was unable to re-identify them with the time I had left to work on the issue, forcing me to lose the 3 files as I had to delete all of them. The failure recovery options and resiliency of this app are lacking. If things don’t fail it works fine, but that’s frequently not the case. 2nd Response to developer: I didn’t come here for support, I came to report detailed reasons why I’m not fully satisfied with the product and hopefully help other potential users decide on the quality. I also provided clear usability feedback that is repeatable with this product. Your instructions are not follow-able for a number of reasons that should’ve been clear in my original post. I had already deleted the entirety of photos on my device prior to the original post, which I stated in my original post. Even if I hadn’t deleted the files, did you expect I was sitting with the app connected and/or somehow tracking 3 random files out of 2045? You have a use ability issue with this product that I’ve described, I don’t need, nor did I ask for support on this issue. I’d rather see you address the problem in future versions of the product.

### 5/5 — Best app ever.

*2022-11-29, version 7.4.9*

Can’t say enough about this amazing application so I will keep this short. I have a professional YouTube channel that I do hardware and gaming videos on and all my posts production is done with Simple Transfer.

Simple Transfer says it all, it’s simple to use, time saving and has great features that make movie making fun and easy.

*2026-02-22, version 7.5.4*

They took a program that was very easy to use to a program that’s not reliable and very hard to get to download pictures.
Used this program for years.
Guys you screwed this up.
Now looking for new software.

### 1/5 — Additional charge after purchase

*2026-01-12, version 7.4.13*

I bought this based on the description which included the cleaner.  Then upon using the app I was told to pay additional $9.99 for the cleaner.  NOT COOL

### 1/5 — veteran paid user also frustrated

*2024-10-21, version 7.4.10*

been a paid user for years but lately the apps have not been connecting to each other 

i’ve tried multiple routers and multiple devices 

as well as usb to lightning cable mode. 

none of them work anymore 

it’s been over a year since the last update, i feel like maybe the app must need a security update to keep working with apple updates 

gonna contact support

### 1/5 — Buggy trash

*2023-05-06, version 7.4.10*

I selected 7470 photos/videos, after downloaded the zip file and unzipped it, there are only 7445. Some HEIC photos are damaged (couldn’t open), I then downloaded a single failed-to-open photo, still can’t open, but if I download the same photo from iCloud, it’s all good.

I paid $30 for this buggy trash, please don’t repeat my mistake.

*2026-02-17, version 7.5.4*

I use this app all the time, both at work and at home for getting photos and videos quickly onto the pc in a format I can use right away. The gallery view means I can browse and snip. Alternatively, I can bulk convert and download to jpg or mp4. It has been a bulletproof part of my daily workflow.
