User Reviews

Users praise the app for saving time on cross-platform transfers and reliability for small batches, with some noting good developer support. However, crashes, large-transfer instability, and a restrictive paid model are common complaints. Connectivity issues via USB/Windows and update-related regressions further hinder reliability. Overall, it's useful for light transfers but unreliable for large libraries.
Pros
  • Time-saving and easy cross-platform transfer between iPhone and PC/Windows.
  • Reliable for small batches of photos/videos.
  • Developer responsiveness and ongoing updates addressing issues.
Cons
  • Crashes and instability during transfers, especially with larger batches or long transfers.
  • Free tier limits and aggressive upgrade prompts; perceived value concerns with premium pricing.
  • Poor handling of large libraries/videos; partial transfers and failures on big jobs.
  • USB/Windows connectivity issues and flaky connections; inconsistent behavior across devices/ setups.
  • Update-induced regressions and inconsistent maintenance history; some updates fix issues while others break features.
Recent reviews
I’ve loved using this app, and have recommended it to dozens of people, but unfortunately it seems that recent updates have lost previous purchases, and the now-nearly-useless desktop program is lagging/crashing. This will be dearly missed. I would consider repurchasing - that’s how much I liked it - but with not knowing how long it will last for, and with literally no direct contact information or social media channels etc, except a simple contact us form on their page, I am reticent to risk it. As their website says, they’ve been on the App Store for many years, and this was a truly solid and dependable app, but unfortunately it seems to have changed. I hope the devs can get it back to how stable it used to be - and with previous purchases not disappearing. But for now, $30/$50/$70 (it’s hard to tell, as their website has ZERO pricing information) is too much to risk a now seemingly declining App. It will be missed. So Long, and Thanks for All the Files.
