Latest reviews of HardDrive app for iPhone and iPad

waste of money
thank you
It could be (much) better...
... if I could select as many files I want to transfer all of them at once.
Without iTunes Sync? No way!
In features it said "exchange files... Using USB or wifi (WITHOUT ITUNES SYNC)". Its not true! You must have sync with your iTunes! Dont buy it!
Software simply does not work
No idea how to work with this app. Starting it leaves me with a blank screen. No idea how to address it from my computer or how to push files to my iphone. The "i" icon does not react. The "HardDrive support" link leads to the homepage full of ads but without any manual or quickstart whatsoever. Deleted it from my iPhone again. Pity for the money.
Very slow data transfer via WiFi
Even when using the local IP address (starting with 192.168...), the transfer is very slow. The AP seems to send all data via an external server! I do not trust in this APP. Data seems to be transferred out of the local WiFi network without encryption!
