Great program but huge floor without status of files being transferred or other operations able to be seen in the main interface along with retries when something fails, and easily accessible logs. these are the basics of any decent program. The user interface, the ability to share to it, and it's operation are all good things. Unchecked is sending many many files which goes directly to the above. some synchronization should also be added. email me for more.

No ads. No tracking. Just easy connectivity. My favorite feature is when I get a call on my phone, it automatically pauses my media on my computer and when I finish the call, it immediately resumes. Every function is customizable, and you can add your own custom ones. I can tell real thought was put in how to make the best experience possible between your computer and phone with this app.

it was working great! i finally could get stuff over to my Ubuntu without struggling to make it look through folders over USB. it still works just fine between my iPad and android...but a week ago it ubruptly disconnected.my laptop. partially. the laptop no longer displays devices and doesnt respond to pings (even with a manual host name). i didnt run any update of any kind on any device to cause that. i tried reinstalling it on the pc and its still failing to see other devices.
