Summary
Your Android, on the Web
AirDroid philosophies: ※ One less cable. Move things on and off your Android device without a USB cable. Even when the device is not nearby. ※ One less screen. Send and receive SMS from your big-screen computer, without being distracted by the small-screen thing. ※ One less worry. Locate and lock your Android when it’s lost. Cannot get it back? Simply wipe all data remotely.
