Macdroid store for free#
Disadvantage: You do NOT get the PRO version for free for 7 days, but a limited version for 5 days. However, the other point of criticism remains: You don't get a PRO as a demo, but only a limited version. The error will be fixed in the next update. However - as announced on the website - 7 days demo are allowed. I have just received a message from the developer that a typo in the translation resulted in the installation being 7 days instead of 5 days. Update /7/XNUMX: XNUMX days demo is correct! If you diligently click on the "Next" button, you finally get to the start screen, where the first point of criticism comes up for me: Instead of the 7 days promised on the website, there is something of a 5-day test version! There is also no file management in the free version, although the website says “Try PRO for FREE for 7 days”. The app starts with a short introduction (even in German!), Which describes the connection via USB, the mounting of an Android smartphone or tablet as a hard drive and more. There is probably a warning that it is a program that has been downloaded from the Internet, etc. Now you can either start the app from the Applications folder or via the Launchpad.

The MacDroid download and the installation of the app for data exchange between Android and macOS are very easy. The one now in the download folder macdroid.dmg is only 16,4 MB in size and is mounted with a double click then all you have to do is drag the app into the program folder. You may have to confirm that Safari (or another browser) is allowed to download data from the site.

The MacDroid download from the site linked above works without any problems. Short test: MacDroid PRO tested with MacBook and Android mobile phone
