It WOULD be a 5/5 but the way trying to scroll when sending pictures, and you wind up accidentally selecting a bunch as a result because of some weird diagonal swipe gesture? That NEEDS to be fixed before I'd even consider changing my review because it is genuinely really annoying, and I'd rather see a toggle to disable it or enable only when needed.

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. 👍

Man, do I love this app. It's a life saver for sending apks to android tv devices. It's also a lot easier than setting up temporary ftp servers or using flash drives just to transfer files around. I have it installed on every android device I own, even a few hypervisors. it just works, every time.
