![]() Computers and smartphones must be on a local network to share files - they can’t be connected to each other on the Internet, in the case of inability to be on the same local network.You must confirm to accept a file transfer every time is unable to mark specific computers/smartphones/tablets as “safe” and to simply always accept file transfers from them.Every time the application is launched it must rescan for networked devices it cannot remember them.I understand some people may appreciate the fact that it isn’t “always on” but other people may want this ability, so the developer should at least give users the option of enabling it if they want to use it. This means you need to open Filedrop every time you want to use it which makes it a bit less seamless than it could be. Is unable to be “always on” in the background and you cannot minimize Filedrop.No information on if connections between computers/smartphones/tablets using Filedrop is encrypted or not it probably isn’t encrypted.Uses 24MB of RAM while running on Windows, which is actually quite light for a Windows program.Extremely easy to use just drag and drop files onto the program window to transfer them (after the devices are connected).Automatically scans and detects additional computers on your local network you don’t necessarily need to even be in the same homegroup or networked together, you just need to be on the same network/connection.You don’t need your devices to be physically connected to share files - they just need to be on the same local network (WiFi or wired network). Can stream photos, audio/music, and videos from phone/tablet to computer.This not only means you can share files between all your Windows computers (desktop and laptops) but this also means you can share files between Windows, Mac OS X, Android, and iOS computers/devices Cross-platform data transfer application.The following are two quick demos showing Filedrop in action: You can even share files cross platform - meaning share files between Windows, Mac OS X, Android, and iOS devices - which is a feature that’s not widely supported by most file sharing applications. If that’s the case, then Filedrop is ideal for wirelessly transferring files quickly and easily it allows you to transfer files between computers and devices that are on a local network (WiFi or wired) connection. I’m sure we’ve all experienced a time where we needed to share files between computers (or smartphones/tablets), yet we didn’t want to bother with flash drives, cloud storage, or any external storage for that matter. That is where Filedrop comes in it allows you to wirelessly share files between all your computers and devices - Windows, Mac OS X, Android, and iOS - using that same drag and drop method that I keep obsessing about. Unfortunately, there aren’t too many applications out there that allow sharing files with the drag and drop method and that have cross-platform support. AirDroid pretty much does the same thing for Android and desktop computers. ![]() ![]() Airdrop for Mac allows you to share files between Mac computers using drag and drop methods, as long as they are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. ![]()
