Clipt

So this is how you can share data between your phone and PC/Mac or even between two phones. I use Sweech every day, but I also liked AirMore, as it doesn’t require any other software on PC, and offers more features. While Clipt is a really handy app for data transmission between multiple devices. Do let us know which one you like the most, and why? in the comments down below.
