Description

Droid NAS allows you to share folders over a Wi-Fi network, making your Android device visible as a Bonjour computer in Finder on your Mac. Turn your phone or tablet into a wireless flash drive with a single tap!

Different profiles can be used to quickly choose which folders to share. Assign your home or office Wi-Fi networks to profiles and Droid NAS will auto-select profiles on start.

You can additionally share any folder on your device (including external SD cards) or remove unnecessary shares. Just tap and hold on the list of shares.

Supported systems:

- Mac OS X.
- Android: apps like ES File Explorer, Solid Explorer, GTVBox Video Player.
- Windows is NOT supported because it can't connect to SMB servers via a non-standard port.
- Linux most probably also won't work.

Keywords: SMB, CIFS, Server, file, transfer, download, upload, copy.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

1 ★Cannot connect , tried all options, may have once worked with some configurations, big waste of time. C-Net can no longer be relied on for reviews.

5 ★it's not like AirDroid or wifi transfer apps , it something unique , you can work on your device as hard disk , you can copy from your device and paste anywhere on your Mac , I said "paste" not Download like what other apps do , it's really amazing app , good job and keep going my friend :)

4 ★This is an excellent little FREE app which does just what it says on the tin. But you are shooting yourselves in the foot by not explaining more clearly how to connect under versions of OSX since Mavericks - and why it has to be like this now. Even pointing out that the app tells you what the IP address is would help many. It seems to me that all your negative feedback is due to ignorance of how to work it rather than a fault with the app.

4 ★Why I need on mavericks make CMD+K and then type smb://MY_IP_ADRESS_OF_SERVER/Camera To access files of camera ? Why you didn't addressed this problems ? Thank you very much for response! Thanks for awesome app!

5 ★We are using this to transfer music and photos from a Mac to a LG VS980 phone and to an Ellipsis 8. Was very easy to connect and also using to organize "albums" on the devices. Great app. My daughter says she would have saved 4 hours if she had found this first!

1 ★Tried the 'work around' and also tried it on multiple WiFi networks to no avail. Had high hopes for this but unfortunately leaves wanting. Wanting something that works.

1 ★On yosemite it just doesnt work. Useless. Tried connecting directly using cmd-k, it says the server may not exist, check IP and network which I have done, no joy

4 ★This is a great app, very easy to setup and use. I had some difficulty setting it up on my work network, but on my home wireless worked great. The one area of major confusion I had was that when I clicked on "SD card" in Finder, I wasn't really seeing everything that was on my SD card. That might be a quirk of the Samsung Galaxy S4, but I had to install a file viewer app on my phone to see what was going on. There is "emulated" storage that I was seeing on my mac via Droid NAS, but I wasn't really seeing the actual SD card.

5 ★Running OS X 10.7, connects effortlessly in my experience. I much prefer using this app with the Finder to manage files in lieu of the clunky Android File Transfer application for Mac.

1 ★I have never gotten this to work. Thought I try again but nope still can't get it to work. Osx latest version no says server not supported.

2 ★It's easy to use. Relatively intuitive. The limitation of internal sdcard access via network and no ms windows access isn't a good move. Luckily I have a MBP and it works great, but I would prefer access for Windows as well.

5 ★No effort whatsoever. Turn it on and my phone's file structure shows up in the Finder. Perfect and indispensable. Optional security key is a plus if I'm not on my home network.
