Instashare - Transfer files App Reviews

Great useful app

Used the app since its beta version. Great little app that works brilliantly on my Macs and iOS devices :)

Not working

I tried sending an image from my iphones clipboard to my mac. There was a notification that the image was received, however it can neither be opened nor saved because "the file clipboard.png cannot be found". :-(

Working perfectly and quiet fast

Really like this app. I tried cloud systems instead to share a song but that would have last about 45 minutes - this app just needed 1 or 2 minutes. Take care of a good internet connection and it will work just the way you want it! I can really recommand it.

Doen’t work

Doen’t work for me. Neither it was between iOS 6 and Mountain Lion, nor it is with the updated systems. Sadly even the support link on the website is dead, so no chance to get my money back. BE CAREFULL, this is crap in some cases!!!

Super!

It is a shame that Apple’s own AirDrop does not work this way. Buy this outstanding app, worth every cents!

Does not work with Bluetooth

Bought this program to connect my iPhone 4 with Macbook Pro by Bluetooth. Nevertheless, it does not work as promised. It is only possisble to send files via wifi. Tried to contact support two times. No response. I uninstalled Instashare.

WOW!

This piece of software is simply AMAZING if you want to exchange files between your laptop and your mobile devices. It is a great way to bypass iTunes in an easy and fast way. Plug and play - no issues at all. Can recommend 100%

Doesnt work as expected

Sometimes work, sometimes dont. If you need to send a file from Mac to iPhone you have to turn on Personal Hotspot and then connect your Mac to iPhone. Doesnt work in opposite way. Doesnt work if both devices connected to the same Wi-Fi.

Just what I needed.

I use Instashare (and the Instashare iOS app) all the time to quickly get files between devices whether or not they on a network. Just drag and drop, and your file is from your Mac and on your iPad in a blink! Fantastc app, keep up the great work!

Love the simplicity

There is one issue with this app which is a UI thing (and probably something to do with my setup) but from a fresh install of Mavericks, I can’t get the “start at login” checkbox to stay checked! The only way I can get the app to start at login is by manually setting it in Users & Groups > Login Items.

What AirDrop should have been

So simple and intuitive. Just how I wish Apple’s official AirDrop worked

Fantastic… when it works

When this app is working, it’s amazing and the answer to all my file transferring dreams. Unfortunately, “working” is a thing Instashare frequently doesn’t do. And the makers haven’t answered any of my support requests through their site or Twitter.

Background mode?

Background device mode doesnt seem to work, i have tried on multiple devices and wifi’s..nothing is being detected until i open the app on my iPad!

ok if it works both ways

cant transfer files from iphone to iMac ,but i can transfer from iMac to iPhone !!!!!!

Don’t waste your time

Doesn’t work on iPhone 5S, and I’ve recieved no refund or assistance or answer to my inquiry.

Broken, buggy and crashes all the time

I’ve given this app a 5 start before, but not anymore. It crashes the instant I launched it. When it does crash it won’t let me transfer anything.

Not as good as it sounds!!

Worked great at first. But then suddenly only sent files from my Mac mini to my iPad. Will no longer send files from iPad to Mac. My advice, look for something else to use.

crashing on iphone

it seems like it would be an awesome app but the connection between my mac book pro and iphone keep breaking. The phone keeps dropping the connection

Instashare1.0.1

AirMac+10.7.5とiPhone4S+iOS5では動作しないです Bluetoothで転送できるとテザリングのない4SでもMacのお供にいいのだけれど残念 動作環境を書いておいてもらわないと250円は無駄! アップデートに期待

Do not Recommend

The reason I do not recommend this application is because; #1:I purchased the application for file transfer between my mid Macbook Pro and Iphone 4S. But unfortunately it does not work. Seldom does it behave as it should but then again it is very slow and unresponsive. I do not recommend this application. #2: I wrote an email to the developer with info provided but didn’t get any answer. I do not recommend this application. Best.
