I finally ditched Quick Share and AirDrop for this free app — and I’m never going back

Wait 5 sec.

Quick Share is a useful but flawed feature. Quickly sharing files between your Android, Windows, and even iOS devices is incredibly convenient. Sadly, it’s not the most reliable tool in the world. It’s often slow to detect devices and transfer files, and prone to disconnections. Thankfully, there’s a far better tool that’s made my life even easier, and it’s free. As frustrating as Quick Share is to use, I’ve resigned myself to using it. No alternative I’ve tried has been any better, always having the same issues or being tied to a subscription model. Then, a few weeks ago, I was listening to the Waveform podcast, and an app called Blip was mentioned. After hearing how this product reliably handles the massive files the MKBHD team works with, I decided to try it for myself — and I couldn’t be happier with it.
