CM Transfer 1.5.0.317
Transfers are made fast and there's no size limit on files, which is quite nice. It's definitely worth a try as it offers lots of nice advantages and nifty tools to help you make transfers easy.
Intuitive design with plenty of features at hand
The app doesn't launch with a tutorial but you wouldn't really need one since it has all sort of instructions to help you pair the two devices together and create a connection.
It doesn't have material design, but it's not really needed since it the UI is intuitive and has everything at hand. There are some options under the overflow icon on the side of the screen, you can change the language of the app and get some more information on how it works.
Transfer files easily
The application lets you transfer photos, videos, music, apps and any other file whenever you like. You can even share ‘documents’ (doc, ppt, xls, pdf, txt) and ‘packages’ (zip, rar, 7z, iso, txt).
Transfers are made quickly, using the WiFi network which means that transfer speeds are faster than when using Bluetooth. CM Transfer is good for sharing files to other mobile devices, but you can't use it on your computer. It uses the WiFi network to send files, you'll have to install the app on the receiving device as well.
There's also the option of sending the app to the other phone via Bluetooth, text message, email or WiFi using a hotspot. Tap on the send files icon to share item and the app will scan the network to connect to the receiving device.
More features
You can save received files either on your internal or external storage, and the app automatically arranges received items in specific folders like pictures, apps, contacts, videos, music, documents and more. There's also a folder with the files that you've transferred.
Unfortunately, the app isn't available for iPhones, so you would only be able to transfer files between Android devices. It's not even available for your computer, which is inconvenient. Other than that, it doesn't come with ads or in-app purchases which is quite nice.
