Xender — fast, cable-free file transfers
Xender is a free utility for Mac (and other platforms) that streamlines moving photos, music, videos, documents, and other file types between devices. It removes the need for USB cords or mobile-data transfers, letting you send files directly between phones and computers over a local connection. The app is designed to handle very large files and aims for rapid transfer rates to speed up migrations of big media collections.
Devices and connections supported
- Move content between mobile devices and desktop computers without wires or cellular data.
- Share files directly between Android and iOS devices.
- Support for multiple operating systems so transfers are cross-platform and flexible.
Speed and file-size capabilities
Xender is optimized for quick transfers — reported speeds reach up to 40 Mbps — and it does not impose strict size limits on individual files. That makes it useful for migrating large videos, entire music libraries, or bulky document archives quickly and without splitting files.
Management tools and extra features
- Download media from social platforms such as Facebook and Instagram for offline use.
- Convert video files into audio formats when you only need the soundtrack.
- Built-in media manager lets you preview, upload, and remove files stored on connected devices.
Scale and usage
Xender reports hundreds of millions of daily transfers and a global user footprint measured in the billions, positioning it as a widely used option for everyday file sharing and media management.
