MarkDroid

Your Android phone, right in Finder.

MarkDroid puts your phone next to your Mac's disks. Browse it, open photos in Preview, edit a PDF and save it straight back to the phone.

Plug in and go

Connect a USB cable and choose File Transfer on the phone. MarkDroid reaches it over MTP with nothing to set up, and switches to ADB for faster transfers when USB debugging is on.

Like a USB drive

Your phone shows up under Locations in Finder. Open files in any Mac app, drag to copy, and save edits straight back to the phone.

Only what you open

Folders list instantly and files download only when you open them. Cached copies clear themselves after a while, so your Mac doesn't fill up.

Lives in your menu bar

Open MarkDroid at login and your phone mounts as soon as you plug it in. Phone storage, retries and settings are one click away.

Copying to your Mac is always free.

To save files to the phone, and rename, move or delete them, start a free 7-day trial, then choose Yearly or a one-time Lifetime purchase.

Your files stay yours.

Files only travel between your Mac and your phone. No accounts, no analytics, no tracking. Read the privacy policy.
