Ratings and reviews

It works. From your pc, you gain access to almost all of the internal storage of your phone. Just like it was an attached drive. And more. Transfer large numbers of files ( like all your pictures) in one operation as a Zip file or load your music library into the phone's SD card. Create a "special" folder in the phone to transport backup of work in progress Not expensive and incredibly useful

Worked for a couple of months then stopped. Phone and computer are on the same WiFi network and I can see the files on my phone but trying to download a 13k Word document simply does nothing. And just like that it started working again. Really weird behavior. Oh, well, there's always email attachments.

I have used this appp for several phones. It works well. Bare bones functionality as far as I can tell,but gets the job done. But now it has become useless as the files on my phone are not showing on the web browser on my PC. Now it only tells me the battery charge and the internal storage being used on my phone. Figured it out. I had somehow turned off permissions. Now it works great. I will change my review to 5 stars.
