I never review apps but I love this one, I use it every day, even paid for the pro version. I'm a Linux user so paying for software isn't something I do. The only issue I have is when I've forgotten to add a computer to the list of where to send, after adding I have to copy and paste the link, thats the only time the address section doesn't auto fill and my only issue. Choosing which computer to send to is a pro version feature and why I paid for the app, I have like a 6 computers I use.
Amazing app . If you can add a feature that auto-clear the Link textbox when It's done sending the link , it will be great , so that we don't accidentally send the same link more than once and don't have to manually clear the textbox with delete to send another link
As of late this app has been completely non-responsive. I can't even enter the freaking credentials needed to make it work because everything freezes up before I get the chance.
It was good for a while, but hasn't had support in 3 years, and now the clipboard autoshare doesn't work anymore. I've got to go find another.
Huge time saver. . I use this app everyday. When I click a share button in an app or a website, this is my default option. I do wish I could go Chrome to phone also, but C'est la vie.
Started out working wonderfully. Now keeps giving a message "added to queue". Please help!
The app is simple and works great. But I still have a question in mind about privacy that if this app logs the links in the back end.
When I am trying to do all the things you are suggesting and I have a pop up that the timer has run out, ck back tomorrow. I'm thinking about simply going back to my IPHONE.
Sadly it's not clearing the url field after each push. Can this be fixed?
Easy to use. Simply push a button to copy a website from your mobile to your PC
open in the same tab option should be added. also auto send option without taping the send button should be appreciated
This app made my life easier and i love it , so keep up the great work guys!!!!
Imposter i have no permissions, or a developer or an app manager nor am i connected to any pc
I don't have a computer I thought it would connect to my android window chronebook
Great app. Please add a vice versa option.
Exertive the power of choice; selecting; as, an elective act.
Apple's unresponsive couldn't get it to open
Sleek & elegant as a add on to QR code and devices sync.
When I share a link from my browser to the app, nothing happens
Is there any possibility to stop automatically opening sent link?
I see no problem with it. It works perfectly !
really?! next time i want to waste my day, i'll check back in hopes you don't waste only a few precious hours!!! GGGGGRRRRRRR!!!
Why don't l add the bookmark, and syn it...
Best app so install it,i give 5- star.
I love this app. Very easy to use
Stop ads abd pop ops
Arenna of the creatures of the clans becomes a multi players and games
must have for chromebooks
I love being able to easily send links from twitter on my phone to my desktop to read later, and this app doesn't require synching everything else. Right now I'm getting an incorrect error: "Computer is offline and failed to queue link; incorrect passphrase." But my computer is on, and this occured without me changing anything, as well as after resetting my passphrase in both places.
