## Description

Air Transfer makes wireless file transfer between iPhone/iPad and a desktop PC or Mac effortless over a local WiFi network. Use drag-and-drop in your browser to send text, bookmarks, photos, music, videos and documents to your computer, or pull content from desktop to your device. Transfers run in the background and items are automatically categorized into seven types for quick access.

Features include a built-in media player with background playback, support for common formats (MP3, WAV, MOV, MP4, PDFs, Office files, HTML), and a built-in document viewer. It supports cross‑browser usage (Safari, Firefox, Chrome, IE) and can back up Camera Roll to your desktop. To use, connect both devices to the same LAN, load the device URL in your desktop browser, and start dragging.

## Review summary

Many users praise Air Transfer for fast, simple transfers and a straightforward workflow, including no hidden subscriptions. Yet the app is widely criticized for instability: frequent crashes on launch, non-reliable transfers, and connectivity issues. Persistent limits (around 10 files) frustrate users, and keeping the screen on during transfer is often necessary. Compatibility problems after OS updates and limited maintenance further erode confidence. Overall, it works when it doesn't crash, but reliability is the critical pain point.

### Pros

- Fast and simple transfers between PC and iPhone via WiFi.
- Easy-to-use workflow (open app, select files, transfer) and straightforward process.
- Works as advertised, especially for large file transfers.
- No hidden subscriptions / transparent pricing.

### Cons

- Frequent crashes and instability (crashes on launch or during transfer).
- Strict file-transfer limits (e.g., 10-file max; 20 photos limit) obstruct workflow.
- Connectivity issues or inability to connect to PC over WiFi (no connect).
- Need to keep the screen on during transfer; battery/screen sleep disrupts connection.
- Maintenance/compatibility issues with newer iOS versions; app not reliably updated.
