Wireless file manager guide
Use your phone as a wireless file workspace for computers and cloud storage
Phone Drive is built for moving, opening, organizing, and keeping files on a mobile device. It connects a phone or tablet to a nearby computer and also brings supported cloud and server locations into the file-management workflow.
Transfer files without a native desktop app
Connect from a Mac or Windows PC through a supported web browser, Finder, or Windows Explorer workflow while the devices share a suitable network. The desktop names describe connection methods; they do not mean Phone Drive installs a native Mac or Windows application.
The Android listing also describes browser, Finder, and Explorer access, but setup details and storage permissions can differ from iPhone and iPad.
Connectors depend on platform and purchase
Apple store descriptions list services such as Dropbox, OneDrive, Box, WebDAV, FTP, Yandex, and iCloud Drive. The Android listing describes a related connector set that also includes Google Drive.
Some connector access may be an in-app purchase, and the available providers are not guaranteed to match across editions. Check the exact service you need before choosing a download.
Preview, edit, archive, and organize common formats
Phone Drive handles broad document, PDF, image, audio, video, archive, text, and source-code families. Current Apple listings include Microsoft Office and iWork formats, ZIP creation and extraction, media playback, and text or source editing.
Choose Phone Drive when the files should remain browsable in an ongoing mobile workspace. For a focused full-resolution photo transfer with metadata checks, compare File Sync instead.

Store and price snapshot audited August 30, 2026 for the United States. Features and prices can change; verify the linked listing before purchase.
Purchase guidance
Free and Pro are separate Apple apps
The audited store pages do not provide a maintainable feature-by-feature entitlement map, so this page does not imply that price is the only difference.
- Apple Free was listed as a free download with In-App Purchases; Apple Pro was $4.99 USD on August 30, 2026.
- Confirm file limits, connector access, restore-purchase behavior, and any in-app offers in the current edition before moving a workflow.
- On Android, check storage-access requirements and current capability notes rather than assuming iOS parity.

Phone Drive or File Sync? Choose the job, not the name
Choose Phone Drive for an ongoing mobile file workspace with storage, connectors, previews, archives, and computer access. Choose File Sync for a focused transfer-and-verify job.
| Feature | Phone Drive | File Sync |
|---|---|---|
| Primary job | Ongoing file workspace and wireless access | Focused local photo and file transfer |
| Connected sources | Local storage plus supported cloud and server connectors | Selected source and destination for a transfer |
| After the transfer | Keep browsing, previewing, editing, and organizing files | Verify delivered resolution, format, and metadata |
| Backup promise | File workspace; not presented as managed backup | Transfer utility; not continuous sync or managed backup |
Privacy, storage, and trust
Know where the connection goes and where files remain
Phone Drive is an ongoing mobile file workspace. Local-network transfers, connected cloud services, and files stored on the device follow different data paths.
- A Mac or Windows PC is a connection destination; the iOS listing is not presented here as a verified native desktop app.
- Local wireless transfer keeps the selected path on the nearby network, while cloud, FTP, and WebDAV connectors follow their providers and server settings.
- Supported storage access, connectors, formats, and stability can differ between iOS and Android; check the current listing for your platform.
