Ratings and reviews

REMOVE THE SHADY ADS. BUY THE APP. It's PERFECT for my usage. There are plenty of options, plenty of features, detailed logs, automation "deep links" that work with TASKER, it all is presented super nicely. I use it to sync my Audiobooks and Pictures like this PC<->Cloud<->Phone. And it works flawlessly. Minor issue : 1. THEY FIXED IT. 2. Scheduled sync stops after a while if you don't reopen the app. You find yourself, one month later with unsynced folders. Don't know why.

I cannot get it to work. It's not intuitive how to set up a Google Drive account with two factor authentication. The lack of documentation or guide makes impossible for me with over 30 years in IT experience. I was able to use a product called DriveSync, but that has too many ads.

I used many applications to sync data between my devices and found this application to be the best. It perfectly syncs your data up and/or down. Edit: I own the premium version. Did you seriously just ask me if I want to sell my data to 1234 legitimate ad partners for analysis?
