About:
Android File Transfer is an official Android application that enables seamless file transfer between an Android device and a macOS computer via USB. It provides a simple, reliable, and fast way to manage files, replacing the need for third-party drivers or cloud services for direct device access.
Key Features:
  • Direct USB connection for fast file transfers
  • Drag-and-drop interface for easy file management
  • No need for third-party drivers or cloud sync
  • Browse files and folders directly on the device
Use Cases:
  • Transferring photos and videos from an Android phone to a Mac for editing
  • Backing up important documents or files from an Android device
  • Managing files on an Android device when cloud storage is not an option
Alternatives:
  • OpenMTP – Open-source alternative that offers a dual-pane interface for easier file management.
  • HandShaker – A more feature-rich manager with a polished UI, but requires a paid license for full functionality.
