Xender is an application that connects two or more smartphones to share photos, applications, and other media. It was founded by Xender Team (originally known as Anmobi.inc). Xender is available on four operating systems (Android, iOS, Windows Phone, Tizen) and in 22 languages. The application was originally released in China with the name Shan Chuan in 2012 and was known as Flash Transfer outside China. In 2013, it supported more languages and its name was changed to Xender.

Services

Xender offers various features for users to send or archive data files such as contacts, text messages, photos, videos, music, and smartphone applications.

Connect PC

Connect PC is a feature whereby users can access nearly all data in the smartphone, including photos, videos, music, contacts, applications, documents, and SMS via a computer. Users also can upload and download data from the computer wirelessly. To connect a smartphone to a PC, users have to download an application called WeLine (also developed by AnMobi inc.). The PC should be in the same WiFi connection for the application to work (or it can create its own WiFi hotspot).

Version 3.0.0521 (Android), a recent version of the application, also supports the "Connect PC" feature.

File transfer methods

  • "Shake" allows users to select a file and shake the phone, then the selected file will be transferred to a connected device.
  • "Group" allows users to transfer files to more than one participant simultaneously. As long as devices are connected to the sender's phone, it does not matter what platform the recipient uses. Xender supports up to 5 devices connected at the same time.
