Great file-sharing between devices and even across operating systems and platforms. I'm sending music files from my Mac to my Windows PC to my Pixel with (nearly) no problem. You may have to do a little troubleshooting with networking as some of my devices weren't being recognised by others and vice versa. After that though, it's smooth sailing.

Okay I have to say, this is one of the best file sharing apps that I've ever used. But I have a little problem with it. I was able to share files from my (Laptop 💻 to Mobile 📱 but can't share from Mobile to Laptop) for some reasons. I tried many times but still the same issue, there is not any accept prompt showing in Laptop. I hope you guys fix this bug soon. Thank you for your wonderful app. 👍

I came from Google's Quick Share, which needs Bluetooth enabled, and the PC app kept disappearing. This is a breath of fresh air. If all your devices are connected to the same network, this is the tool to use. No Bluetooth enabling is required. It's simple to use, and the desktop app doesn't keep disappearing. It works everywhere there's a client. Superb!
