5MB limit for the free version is ridiculous, I needed to transfer a single large file because my data cable no longer works. The 5MB limit is hidden under the Upload button, and I didn't notice it until the file failed to upload. If you're going to impose a size limit for the free app, then reject the file upon selection, don't wait until the entire thing uploads then let the user wonder why. FTP based file transfers are better anyways.

I would give this app a five-star rating, except it doesn't always work. When it does work, it's great. It allows fast and easy transfer of files via WiFi. The only two problems with it are that it doesn't always work, and sometimes it works, but the data gets corrupted in transfer. If the developer fixes those two bugs, I'll give it five stars easily.

Transfer works flawless. If yours or others don't work, it's not the app. It is a communication issue. IE security, browser etc. Display is intuitive. However, free version limited. For larger files I now use FTP transfer. It not as nicely layout visually. It not as graphics visually as easy, but supports large files. WIFI file transfer is the best. I wish the unlimited version was free. I will never, for security reasons, put my credit card info on Google.

I don't normally leave reviews of apps (I don't use that many to be bothered) but I've been using this one for several years and it is completely reliable and works flawlessly. I have transferred files easily from the phone to both Windows and Linux computers with no issues whatsoever. Many thanks to the developer for creating such a solid product!

This app is about the best of its kind out there. Its easy, really freaking fast, and the UI is easy to navigate without tutorials and help. I definitely was impressed with its reliability as well.

Like some others on this feedback board, I'm not one to write reviews of software because things change so rapidly. But I am so impressed with this small/resource-efficient piece of code that is so well designed and executed I had to write a review. I have an older version of Android 4.1.2 (after 18yrs of experience with software ... if it ain't broke, I don't fix it) and this little app installed with no issue, works out of the box with no issue (with various versions of IE, Chrome and FireFox browsers) and has a very easy, intuitive and well-designed user interface for all of its functionality. Great job by the developers! 5 Stars!
