Why MacDroid is perfect for music transfer

MacDroid makes transferring music as simple as possible. Once you connect your Android device via USB or Wi-Fi, it appears in Finder, just like an external drive. This gives you direct access to your music folders, letting you browse, open, and manage your music just the way you prefer.

Transferring songs is straightforward: select the songs you want, and drag and drop them to your Mac. With our music transfer app, managing your songs across Android and macOS feels efficient and simple.

What others say

I often download podcasts and audiobooks to my Android phone but prefer listening on my Mac while working. Large M4A files were always a pain to transfer. Now I simply drop them into the right folder using MacDroid.

Annette Dubois 5.0

I had an old Android phone with a big MP3 collection that was barely turning on. My Mac recognized it instantly with MacDroid, and I saved all the files before the phone completely died. The app really saved me here.

FAQ

1. What else can be transferred from an Android device to a Mac apart from music?

MacDroid supports transferring all common file types, including videos, music, documents, folders, archives, and most other data stored on your device. However, some protected or system files may not be available for transfer, as Android itself restricts access to them.
