Alternative

A paid OpenMTP alternative for Mac users who want supportable USB transfer.

OpenMTP is a useful free and open-source project. SmoothDroid is different: it is a paid, signed, notarized Mac utility focused on local wired Android transfers and clearer conflict recovery.

What SmoothDroid focuses on

Native macOS app for macOS 12 or newer.
USB/MTP transfers with no cloud and no phone companion app.
Side-by-side Mac and Android panes.
Drag and drop, copy/paste, rename, delete, and folder creation.
Conflict detection when macOS or another transfer app blocks the phone.

When OpenMTP may still be right

If you specifically want a free and open-source app, OpenMTP should be on your shortlist. SmoothDroid is for people who are comfortable paying once for a focused Mac utility with direct support and a notarized download.

When SmoothDroid makes sense

Choose SmoothDroid when you want a small commercial tool whose product promise is narrow and explicit: Android file transfer for Mac, locally over USB, without account setup or cloud storage.
