Review summary

Catch! is praised for its fast, easy, and ad-free wireless file transfer between Android and PC over local networks, including a unique file browsing feature. However, users highlight drawbacks such as the necessity of Daemon Tools on PCs, which incurs extra cost, transfer failures with large folders or certain file types, limited backup functionality, and a somewhat unintuitive interface. Additional requested features include progress indicators, text sharing, and folder selection. Overall, it's highly recommended for quick file transfers but has areas needing improvement.

Pros

Fast and easy wireless file transfer between Android devices and PCs.
Does not use internet bandwidth, only local network speed, making transfers efficient.
Supports direct WiFi connection for transfers outside home WiFi.
Includes browsing files on other devices feature, which is robust and unique.
No ads and free to use, providing a good user experience.

Cons

Requires Daemon Tools on PC, which is not free, leading to confusion about the app's true cost.
Issues with transferring large folders or many files at once, sometimes causing the app to hang or crash.
Lack of intuitive interface and clear instructions can cause setup confusion between phone and PC.
Does not support folder selection or backup tasks with subfolders, limiting backup usability.
Missing features like transfer progress bars, notification sounds, and permission to delete files on SD card.

2024-10-12	An*****	Doesn't work for a Samsung Flip 5 phone. Obviously, the Flip 6 is out now, so this app hasn't been updated 🙄 in quite some time.

2024-08-08	Ja*****	This is the BEST way to transfer files between your pc and android device. It's so easy and extremely fast too!

2024-03-25	Ja*****	Can I backup a folder? No. I can't select a folder and subfolders to backup. I can only select one folder if the folder has a file in it. I can't select the two folders to create a backup task on pc. I can't see how this is of any use. It's so much easier to remove the SD card to use a pc to make backups. Removing

2023-02-04	Za*****	It's the perfect app for seamless file transfer between different devices on the same network. I was surprised by the feature of directly browsing the files of other devices! Out of all the apps I have tried, I have never seen an app with such a robust feature. Seriously. Thank you. I would like to recommend a feature: being able to share text between devices.

2022-12-26	Mu*****	Used to be great, now it's only good for transferring images. Any other file format and it will fail saying not enough permissions even though it has all it asked for.

2022-11-17	Mi*****	Thusfar has done everything it's supposed to. Was easy to setup and it automatically finds your pics, vids, etc. Easier than digging around for it manually. If you need Daemon Tools, it's a great bonus.(You do need Daemon Tools to use this with your PC. It's not included in every version, so check first.)

2022-04-02	Mi*****	Once you've installed Daemon tools light on your Pc (free version), this then works really well for transferring any files to your Pc in one click and at fast speeds. The only thing missing is a transfer progres bar or notification sound for when files have completed transfer.

2022-01-10	Ro*****	Just not very intuitive. Phone tells to set up PC. PC tells me to set phone. I think I'll go back to the old Daemon sync until it stops working.

2021-12-09	Da*****	Best wireless media and storage transfer management tool. This app is awesome, and really saves a lot of time. It just uses your router's bandwidth, not the internet, so it works as fast as your device can transfer data wirelessly. Say goodbye to that messy and slow cable data transfer.
