Users who want to edit files on Mac without transferring them from Android devices could also find this product useful. It allows users to transfer photographs, music, videos as well as entire folders between computer and device.
MacDroid 1.0 requires macOS 10.10 or later and works with all Android and MTP devices. It’s distributed in two versions: free and Pro. Both can be obtained from the developer’s website.
The free MacDroid allows file transfer from Android to Mac. The Pro version allows file transfer from Android to Mac and from Mac to Android with the possibility to edit Android files on Mac without having to actually save them on computer. MacDroid PRO is sold as an annual subscription with auto-renewal and costs US$19.99 per year.
iOS
Alexandre Colucci has launched Clatters 1.0, an app exclusively designed for the iPhone and iPad. It’s designed to make it easy to monitor in one place a brand name, product name or any other keyword on social networks, including Twitter, Reddit, HackerNews and even comments on the iOS App Store. It’s free, but there’s a “pro” version ($2.99/month or $29.99/year) that offers advanced features.
