It worked from my 2008 Macbook Pro to my Android. At work, it asked for a device code between a Windows computer and an iMac. I have no clue where to find that information. I tried inputting the same number on both computers but that didn't work.

When you try to enter developers website - it is impossible!? You are blocked by mandatory demand to subscribe to their "early bird" developers list for Android app! They ask for your email address - OK. But, after you get their email and after you confirm your email address, they offer you two options: 1 - to go on their website 2 - to menage your preferences (!?) Under No. 1 - it is impossible (again!?) to enter their website (it returns you to "Android subscription")! Under No. 2 - they ask for your full first and last name!? Not good for privacy!

What about an Android version ? It would be great to be able to share with those devices, too...

One of the best file transfer tool between Mac & iOS devices. FileDrop is much easier to use than DropCopy, since you won't need to configure anything at all. FileDrop a standard application, so that you just have to launch, connect, transfer file, and quit, that's it. And that's why I like it over DropCopy: for most of the time yon won't need to have a persistent service waiting for connection all the time. For those who have trouble pairing devices: first check the version of FileDrop on each ends. Then make sure all devices are connected in the same "broadcast domain". Please note that two devices may not be in the same broadcast domain even their subnet number is identical. And some routers or WiFi APs may sometimes blocks certain broadcast pockets (such as mDNS used by Bonjour.) You may consult with your network administrator for this. If still fails, there might be something "chattery" in your local network, such as DLNA.

Question: Apparently does the same as AirDrop, so... I don't get it.

Doesn't work, error messages erupted when I tried to drop a file then hung and had to quit. No file transfer b/w two macs on same network. Have posted detailed crash log and description on MAS, I can't copy the text from there to here. Have sent crash info to dev to see if it helps. Until then, am using DropCopy.
