I came from Google's Quick Share, which needs Bluetooth enabled, and the PC app kept disappearing. This is a breath of fresh air. If all your devices are connected to the same network, this is the tool to use. No Bluetooth enabling is required. It's simple to use, and the desktop app doesn't keep disappearing. It works everywhere there's a client. Superb!

Okay I have to say, this is one of the best file sharing apps that I've ever used. But I have a little problem with it. I was able to share files from my (Laptop šŸ’» to Mobile šŸ“± but can't share from Mobile to Laptop) for some reasons. I tried many times but still the same issue, there is not any accept prompt showing in Laptop. I hope you guys fix this bug soon. Thank you for your wonderful app. šŸ‘

This is the best app I have ever used. it's so easy to use and it's cross platform and has a uniform look and feel. very efficient and reliable. How to use it. Turn off mobile data , then turn on hotspot on one device and connect with WiFi on another device. when both devices are connected, then the rest is intuitive. I hope this helps. you can also watch YouTube videos on how to use it.
