DropCopy - easily share files and clipboard text between iPhones, iPod Touches and Macintosh computers.

DropCopy is designed to function as intuitively as possible: simply launch it on 2 or more iOS devices (or computers) that are on the same Wifi network and the devices will automatically "see" each other. You select the file you want to copy, and the destination; DropCopy takes care of the rest. To get files from the Mac to your iPhone, simply drag a file onto our discreet "dropzone" on your desktop and it is transferred immediately to your chosen destination. To learn more, watch a video of DropCopy in action at http://10base-t.com/macintosh-software/dropcopy/

There are many uses for DropCopy in addition to the standard “take your files with you” scenario. DropCopy has file previews for most common media types, including Word, PDF, and many others. These previews can be viewed full-screen, and support rotation. With firmware 3.0 and newer, you can also share clipboards between iPods, iPhones and computers. Imagine ‘copying’ an address, note or recipe on your Mac and then simply ‘pasting’ it on your iPod!

*Be aware that DropCopy cannot access the files in your iTunes library on your iPhone/iPod. In order to use DropCopy, you must first add files to the iPhone/iPod with DropCopy for the Mac, or from another DropCopy mobile client.

Pros and cons of DropCopy mobile app for iPhone and iPad

DropCopy mobile app good for

Still the best tool for quick and hassle-free file and clipboard transfers from OSX to iOS and vice versa. The UI may look a bit nerdy but its half the hype, twice the functionality. Love it. Beats AirDrop and its halve-baked clones by miles.
It simply works! No need to say more. Quick and easy, every time, while air drop only only sometimes and in some cases works. I continue to use this!
I think this is a fantastic app, it works wonders with my apple setup, and is by far, the most convenient and expedient way to transfer files. HOWEVER! Something this app just screams for (even since its good ol days) is a landscape view in the "quick-view" full screen mode. It drives me NUTS that I cannot tilt my phone and read my pdfs and docs in the ideal landscape mode, thus I have to keep my bulky cumbersome Filemagnet app around as they offered landscape view in a recent update... 5 stars otherwise, but without landscape more like 2 star rating! :( So please, offer a landscape mode! Thank you for all your hard work at a reasonable price!
The quickest, simplest way to move stuff between devices. Dead easy, from the first time you install it.
If you want to quickly transfer docs or PDFs from Mac to ipad get this. No more fumbling around with cables.
I have an early 2009 Mac mini which doesnt support AirDrop. I came across Drop Copy some time ago and have been using it since. It works perfectly. I can easily transfer files between my iPhone 5 and my 2009 Mac mini. On the Mac, its simply drag and drop onto the Drop Copy icon on the desktop. On the iPhone simply choose your file or picture from within the app.

Some bad moments

In the description there can be found ... Most common media formats. But which one for audio and video and which other document formats? E.g on my system mp4 Video Files doesnt play but on my mac with QuickTime Nr problem also with other Players it plays Fine. Seems to be codec problem. support doc,docx,xls,...... only sporadic info.m4v Files are stored in documents not in Video , a switch to the right "folder" not possible The ideal is good but if not more information will be provided by vendor dont purchase for 4 euros use light version without preview.
Just purchased this application. It didnt see my iTouch. Support is non-existent. You go to the support page and it says that there is a database error. There really needs to be a way of getting your money back for applications that dont work.
Wont work properly. Wont play formatted for iPhone videos. Wont transfer big files (I was able to upload a 800MB file from my work iMac, but never managed to download it back on my home iMac). Deleted. I wish I could ask for a refund. FILES works better.
クリップボードは日本語が化けます。 使っているとwifiが切断される。別アプリに切り替えれば復活します。意味なし。 基本的な転送には問題ありません。ファイルサイズもある程度制限ない感じです。システムルートのフォルダ以下にアクセス可能。ただ、隠しファイルとかは見えない。なぜかiTuneのファイルたちも見えない。カメラロールはOK。 真面目に作ってくれればいいアプリになると思うので、アップデートでの改善に期待します! Automatically disconnect from wi-fi network every time Im using... Available for access to the system root but cant see iTunes folders anywhere. I like this soft anyway, I hope the update will be better and fix some issues with the Japanese language.
I was very disappointed as 4€ app in version #3.4 should work correctly. In spite of well working iphone/mac versions, the iPad v. remains very unstable, there is a problem in communication with iphone and mac, moreover the app causes constantly repeating wi-fi connection loosing. Such mistakes are unforgetable for developer. 0/5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ive just updated the App and the money for this application was written off from my credit card. I bought it long ago :(((
