I am using OpenMTP for fast file transfers and file management https://openmtp.ganeshrvel.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 25 days ago

For those on MacOS, you can use a free tool called OpenMTP to do any type of file transfer from your MacOS to Xreal Beam. Supports multiple transfer of APK files. Feel free to give this a try if you prefer downloading all your APK packages to your Mac and transferring them in one go to your Beam. Have fun! Source: 7 months ago

TL;DR - Uninstall Android File Transfer (software hasn't seen an update since 2018), and switch to OpenMTP. Source: 9 months ago

That said, Google's "Android File Transfer" app is not the only app which supports MTP on MacOS. People say good things about OpenMTP but I don't have personal experience with it: https://openmtp.ganeshrvel.com/. Source: about 1 year ago

For media, you will need to transfer stuff on an intermediate device via mtp. For Mac you have open mtp https://openmtp.ganeshrvel.com. Linux should support this natively. No idea for Windows. Source: about 1 year ago

I've been using Soduto, a 3rd party KDE Connect client, on the Mac for a few years now and it works quite well for my needs https://soduto.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

For AirDrop, try Soduto at https://soduto.com/. It connects to KDE-Connect on your iPhone. You can send and receive large files, browse your iPhone's files, and sync your clipboard, all while on the same network. Source: about 1 year ago

KDE connect, from my understanding, is almost more of a protocol than needing the KDE Desktop manager. I've actually never used KDE Connect on a desktop yet use GSConnect on gnome, Soduto (https://soduto.com/) on mac, etc. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
