File Transfer, as the name suggests, is an app that lets you seamlessly transfer or exchange folders and files between different devices. The tool is cross-platform, which means it would work on a Mac, iOS, Windows, and Android.

Quick and Easy

Using the app is fairly straightforward. There is no configuration needed, and also you’ll not have to type in any address for establishing a connection; devices get discovered automatically. You just have to drag files and folders and they would get transferred within a matter of seconds. No iTunes or USB cable is needed for the purpose. The app lets you browse through the different files saved locally and sort them into their own folders. Also, it allows you to adjust certain settings within the application and set an alert or warning notification whenever you close the app.

Local Network Transfer

File Transfer doesn’t require the cloud. Files get directly transferred locally, which means the two devices should be hooked on to the same Internet connection. This also means you will not have to upload files online, and download them later to a particular device. The file transferring process lets you send and receive folders and files, your clipboard’s contents, etc. File Transfer works with several local file manager applications. It works with Mavericks Notification Center, and has been optimized to be compatible with MacBook Pros.
