I really like the app, It's really useful for many things, but there's an obstacle that will kit it in December 2022. Whenever I'm about to log in a pop up pops up saing "AirDroid is no longer supported. Old versions of Chrome Apps won't open on Windows devices after December 2022. You can check if there's a new version available." So, if there's a new version (and as of writing this review, there isn't), the App will become obsolete. Hopefully you can do something about that. =)

This is the most perfect app for driving my Android based telepresence robots. I do not use it to transfer files. I use it to conduct telepresence Easter Egg hunts. I love this app!
