Comments on Samsung Flow for Android

★★★★☆ Rade Markovic · Dec 9, 2025

My wi-fi connection with Samsung Flow suddenly stopped working. I reinstalled both apps, but to no avail. Any ideas? OK, I found the reason. Avast antivirus stops it, now I have to find the way to fix it.

★★★★★ arindam guin · Jan 27, 2026

Great App by Samsung ❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️

★★★★★ Fedry Jiménez · Mar 9, 2026

I love this app, and I can connect my pc Samsung to my phone. This app should be recognized.

★★★★★ Brandon Berry · Feb 2, 2026

Connectivity issues addressed and app is now stable over both network and tethered connections. Thanks!

★★★★★ Abir Seal · Dec 14, 2025

Very good application for file transfer to pc. But I don't know if it will work other than samsung phones or not. I have used it on samsung, works really good.

★★☆☆☆ Accuface2000 · Apr 2, 2026

It's only useful for transferring files between devices via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. Otherwise, it's a pointless app. There is no option for usb cable connect, which is very bizarre. I only installed this app because Samsung PC suite doesn't work. These huge corporations have garbage software nowadays which is designed to shove you to their online stores and apps. They overlook the fact that users have to work offline in many cases.

★☆☆☆☆ David W · Dec 23, 2025

Doesn't work. Or rarely works. Very rarely will a file transfer successfully. Usually it just times out. I just bought a patch cord, and now it's instant transfer. I had high hopes, but this is disappointing. Seems like a basic ask.

★☆☆☆☆ Steve · Mar 23, 2026

Couldn't even figure out how to share photos between my phone and tablet. Not intuitive or user-friendly enough for me.
