Who this is for
You are a good fit if Android File Transfer, OpenMTP, Image Capture, cloud sync, or a wireless workaround is not doing the job, and you specifically want a local USB transfer tool on macOS.
If SmoothDroid cannot connect after the setup checks, email within 14 days with your purchase, device, software, error, and troubleshooting details. Please keep the affected device available for reasonable follow-up checks while the request is reviewed under the connection refund terms.
What I need back
- Your Mac model, chip type if known, and macOS version.
- Your Android phone brand, model, and Android version.
- Whether browsing, Android to Mac download, Mac to Android upload, folder transfer, rename, delete, and folder creation work.
- Any connection issue, USB cable detail, or app conflict that SmoothDroid reports.
Known requirements
- macOS 12 Monterey or newer, on Apple silicon or Intel.
- An Android device that exposes File Transfer, MTP, or Android Auto over USB.
- A data-capable USB cable, not a charge-only cable.
- The phone unlocked while connecting, with File Transfer/MTP selected from the Android USB notification.
