Description
WebSharing Lite enables you to wirelessly transfer files to and from your phone or tablet using a web browser. You can view images, play videos, and manage files on your device using your WI-FI network.
* FREE, AD-FREE, AND UNCONSTRAINED: The Lite version of WebSharing is entirely free. There are no advertisements displayed, neither on your phone/tablet itself nor in your web browser. Drag-and-drop file upload is included. There are no file-size limitations in the free version. The full version adds more features, but the Lite version is intended to be very functional and useful by itself.
* FILE MANAGER: Use the file browser to upload and download content to and from your device. The file browser is a fully functional file manager, with the ability to move, copy, rename, and delete files and folders on the phone/tablet. DRAG-AND-DROP file upload lets you quickly upload files by simply dragging them into the browser. With Google Chrome, you can event drag-and-drop entire hierarchies of folders. Uploaded files are queued/uploaded sequentially, so you can be repeatedly drag files/folders into WebSharing without worry.
* IMAGE VIEWER: A built-in image viewer provides the ability to display large photos with pan and zoom capabilities.
* VIDEO PLAYER: Play videos stored on the phone directly within the browser. Videos may be downloaded or viewed directly using both HTML5 and Flash-based video players. The HTML5 player has streaming support, letting you quickly skip to a position inside large movies.
* PRIVACY AND PERFORMANCE: Your data never leaves your Wi-Fi network when you use WebSharing. It does not use the Internet / cloud to perform transfers. Your computer and phone/tablet will communicate directly and privately. And because your data doesn't go over the Internet, transfers happen at local network speed.
Network support: WebSharing is intended for use on Wi-Fi networks, but can work over cellular networks if your carrier allows direct access to phones/devices on their network. Most carriers do not allow cellular access.
Browser support: WebSharing supports modern web browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Internet Explorer.
Video format support: WebSharing can play videos using either an HTML5 or Flash-based video player. Video format support varies by browser and operating system. Most current browsers will play MP4 files using HTML5. The Flash player is capable of playing MP4, 3GPP, and FLV files.
This is the "LITE" version of WebSharing. If you'd like more features, you can upgrade to the paid version of WebSharing: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.websharing.r1 The full version adds the following additional capabilities:
* A music player that enables you to stream music from your phone/tablet to your computer. Browse your entire music collection, or by artist, album, or playlist. * Browse photo and video galleries. * Access your device as a disk drive from your computer using WebDAV. * Enable a guest access account with customizable restrictions.

Comments on WebSharingLite (File Manager) for Android
★★★★★
This app has not been updated for a long time. I'd rather use the 'web access' feature in fx file manager instead. But you need the plus version.
★★★★★
So....... Many...... Useless complicated apps on this play store and I finally found one app that can just allow me to transfer files from pc to mobile and vice versa This is a great app
★★★★★
Great app but the price for Pro version went from .99 cents to $2.99 overnight. And I had just come in to purchase. I have to take off a star for thta let down.
★★☆☆☆
Lite version pointless does nothing except directing to same page informing users to buy the $5 version since this is too old. Google needs to hire people to take the thousands of useless apps that don't work or are too old
★★☆☆☆
This app used to work great but no longer sees/accesses the SD card. The developer has not updated it since 2014, no wonder it stopped working properly. Developer is unresponsive to inquiries, hence the 1 star. This also applies to the Pro version.
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't allow users to access external SD card and transfer files to it using the http interface.
