This application worked exactly the way it needed to absolutely for free. It had a paid program for more advanced features, but I found it to be exactly what I was looking for to connect Android to Mac wirelessly. Macintosh should take note: compatibility between Mac and its competitors is more important now than ever.

This is a great automation app for Android devices. It provides a huge number of triggers and actions. The learning curve is not to steep and the UI is attractive, making it a short trip to being productive.

It works in my MacBook Air M1. You'll be only able to transfer files from Phone to the Mac in free version, not from Mac to the phone.

MacDroid is the best automation app for Android! It saves me much time by automating manual gestures such as adjusting brightness, muting audio, and sending my SMS to emails or webhooks.

Tried many apps before, but none offer the reliability and speed of MacDroid. A game changer for Android-Mac users.

MacDroid is an excellent file transfer software that makes Mac to Android and Android to mac data transferring a breeze! With the free version, you can only transfer files from Android to Mac; however, with the pro version, you can transfer files between Android and Mac in both directions.

The best thing about MacDroid is sharing my photos with my family through my Mac’s Photo app. Before I had the software it was difficult to get pictures to the group of people I wanted to see them. Now it’s a breeze!
