| 2024-09-18 |  | | Great app, not anymore for me. Very unreliable. Just lost a 2gb family video and its gone forever I was sending a bunch of files and 2 videos just cancelled themselves. I'd better use propietery software. File names with other english characters dont get sent. |
| 2024-01-09 |  | | Best app for sharing files between cross platform devices. Tried it between two android phones and android to pc as well. Simple and beautiful UI. Works smoothly. One suggestion is that files history section should have some options like view details of the file, delete the file etc. Also since this is an open source app, it should be available in F-droid. Lastly, Keep the project alive. Loved it every bit. |
| 2023-11-20 |  | | Great app to share apps/files between devices. Connectivity is done well with seamless connection. |
| 2023-05-26 |  | | Works well. Speeds are okay, but not as fast as other apps like Snapdrop. The UI is nice and clean. I wish there is a web interface, though. Installation on Windows for a quick file transfer can deter many people from using Photon. I also ran through an error, so I had to install the 2015 Redistributable to fix it. Not the easiest app to install, but once it is installed, it's easy and simple. I like Photon. |
| 2023-05-20 |  | | For a free app, it's very fast, sometimes it doesn't connect, maybe 4 fails in 10 connections but that is still okay. I appreciate it and I use it often. |
| 2023-05-07 |  | | This app is a life saver. Literally transfers large amount of data within minutes. Waiting for iOS. |
| 2023-04-30 |  | | Very beautiful And Awesome Application, But I couldn't send files from PC to Android Phone. Can You tell me the solution??? Phone to PC transfer working smoothly but how to transfer from PC to Phone??? |
| 2023-03-03 |  | | Photon is my favourite file transfer app right now but please make a search feature in 'Apps' section to search between installed apps as it's really hard to find one app if you have a lot of apps installed. |
| 2023-02-23 |  | | Great! No unnecessary permissions required and works everytime! It would be nice if we are able to send the entire folder (one of the reason why I still use ShareIt 😅) |
| 2023-02-19 |  | | Best app to transfer files between Android and windows devices. App is minimalistic, smooth and works 10/10 times.Great app! |
