For who does not know about the program, it is great.
It has been on the app market for quite some time i think.
I was bothered about the fact that i had to use the USB cable all the time for every transfer. This would wear out the usb micro connector fast.
Thus i started using bluetooth, but sometimes uploading would not function and it took forever with large files of tens to hundreds of Megabytes.
I recently tried out the free demo version (wifi file explorer without the "pro"). Now i have bought the pro version. (Only 69 eurocent or 91 dollarcent)
This program turns your android phone into a web server accessible through your browser. Then you can download , upload and stream music by use of the wifi connection.
The free version only allows downloads and streaming from your android phone to your pc.
The pro version can also upload and more i have not yet tried out.
It has a password option.
The used IP port is configurable. And when the program starts, it presents the IP address that you must type in your browser address bar.
For example 192.168.1.2:8000.
Then you get a webpage that looks like a file explorer.
Since it is wifi, that means megabytes transfers in a few seconds.
And no longer an USB cable is needed except for charging of the lithium ion battery. :thumbsup:
