AndroidFileSync
Browse Android on Mac like Finder. Free & open-source
A modern macOS innovation for Android: a native, open-source file manager that brings Finder-like simplicity to your phone. Transfer files, preview media with Spacebar, and sideload apps over USB or Wi-Fi — completely local, private, and subscription-free.
I got tired of Google's official Android File Transfer crashing all the time, and fed up with other tools charging subscription fees just to copy files. So, I built a native macOS app in SwiftUI that makes browsing your phone feel exactly like using Finder!
✨ Key Features:
Finder Experience: Drag & drop files directly between your Mac and phone.
Spacebar Previews: Hit Spacebar (Quick Look) to preview phone images, videos, and PDFs instantly.
Built-in App Manager: Sideload .apk, .xapk, or split .zip files, and easily remove bloatware.
USB & Wi-Fi: Connect via cable or local Wi-Fi. Zero phone apps to install!
Revamped UI: Sleek, native macOS aesthetics with custom gradients and glassmorphic elements.
Keyboard Shortcuts: Mouse-free file management with standard macOS keys (⌘C, ⌘X, ⌘V, ⌘⌫).
It is 100% Free, Open Source (GPL-3.0), Offline-Only, and completely private (no tracking, no cloud).
The Spacebar preview idea feels like such a natural fit for a Finder-style experience, makes browsing media on Android feel less like digging through a folder app and more like the desktop flow people already know. Clean execution.
Does the sideloading over Wi-Fi work through a browser interface or do I need a companion app on the Mac to pair them up?
Does it actually handle the wireless transfers without needing ADB setup every time you reconnect, or is there still some initial config on the phone side?
