### 1/5 — Waste of money, wish they had negative stars

*2014-08-20*

I purchased this tool so I could transfer files from my old iPad to my new iPad.  There is no documentation and the user interface is extremely unintuitive.  I am an IT professional and know my way around mobile devices, but I cannot figure this app out.  I also really dislike that when you try to copy a photo it does not keep the original file name.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work and poor interface

*2013-06-29*

Was able to set up a server and used the other I device as a client and connected fine. That was about as far. Photos did not transfer. The interface is very primitive.

### 1/5 — Pure rubbish

*2013-02-14*

I have an app that transfers photos Photo Transfer- (simple and excellent).
This messis I intuitive and can't transfer any files other than photos. Other files must support the"open in" protocol that only some programs offer. The person Leon who answers my questions is fast to respond and a very nice guy. This App is a waste of time; there are many better and free if you search For photos get photo transfer: it's free and very easy.
