Drive does all it claims to do and is very convenient. I use it all the time. My only issue with it was that it does not have any connector (ring, nylon loop, etc.) so it is difficult to mount on a keychain, and the like. I would buy it again.

Highly recommended

I'll admit, I have many apple devices, some would say too many. But you can't argue against how user friendly their products are. My only gripe would be as they introduce more products, the less "customizable" they become. And knowing that I'll likely buy their latest versions of i-whatever, I'm usually getting the version that's most affordable which often means there's not much space on these things. I figure its not a big deal since I have most of my stuff in the cloud. But there are times when I just can't find a decent internet connection and can't get to my stuff. When I found out about the connect wireless flash drive, I knew it would be a life saver! Or should I say 'time saver'! Not only won't I have to wonder or worry how much space is left on my iphone or ipad, I can ditch multiple copies of my files. Even better, this drive works with my samsung tablet, BONUS (yeh, I caved when I discovered the samsung note came with a pen)!
Pros: The drive is compact, the size of a pack of gum. Looks good and battery life is pretty good.
Cons: App is super simple and easy-to-use, but it would be sweet if I could save pics and vids directly to the drive. I wish it would work with my apple watch and save me from the 2gb cap on the music storage nonsense!

This little thumb drive is wireless.... spacious.... and has a nice design....very easy to configure and holds a charge a long time....perfect for when ur phone or tablet doesn't allow for an external micro SD card... And the best part is....that it can be accessed from Android or Apple devices...and has the ability to be password protected.....

I never thought this wireless usb would be so useful. It's worked perfectly; it connects to all my devices very smoothly and without a hitch. It is bidirectional and backs up photos, videos and files of any kind that can be opened with your phone, tablet or PC. You can easily copy files to it from your PC desktop, for example, and then wirelessly transfer them to your other devices thanks to its hotspot. Or stream them, if you prefer. Most notably, you can use it without downloading the SanDisk app, but the app comes in handy if you want to configure a password for secured access and monitor the usb's battery charge. In a nutshell, Best Buy had the best price when I bought it and am thinking of getting another one.

This SanDisk is an absolutely remarkable product. I bought it to use with my 16 GB iPad Air 2 because the storage has very quickly filled up. I can store photos taken with my iPad and iPhone then delete from the devices. I have also downloaded many documents including my 300 page camera manual, from my PC, and many photos. All these are then available wirelessly to my Apple devices at any time. Setup is very easy. It will work with any device that has Wi-Fi. Not just Apple. A great way to add memory at a very good price. I plan to purchase the 64 GB model.
Highly recommend this product.

Works well with my recent Androids, Samsung Galaxy S4 and S6. However, no joy with my older Kindle Fire HD 8.9. It's older version of the OS is not supported by the app. I can still transfer files, using the web interface, but not stream.
I haven't run the battery down yet, but it doesn't seem to last that long. There also seems to be a lot of self-discharge (ie. the battery burns down even when it isn't on).
Still, it is a decent alternative to OTG for devices that don't support SD expansion. One advantage over OTG, is that I can have either one or both the device and my cellphone plugged into a portable charger while playing a movie. Can't do that with OTG as it takes up the charging port.

Got this on sale to use with my iPad and Note 4 phone. Connecting to it is super easy and allows you to store photos, movies and music on it so you don't have to use data to upload to a cloud. It's really like having a storage cloud with you where ever you go.

I purchased this flash drive to use with my iPad. Most thumb drives (flash drives) do not work with the iPad due to the power comsuption issue. This flash drive being WiFi capable and self powered works like a champ. I have used it to transfer files much faster than using the cloud and in situations when I didn't have WiFi connectivity to the Internet. While on travel where many Hotel WiFi connections are slow this flash drive is the answer. I transfer a lot of image and video files...

Always wanted this type of device for a simple way to add storage to devices without SD slots. We have both android and apple devices, the SanDisk app works fine on those platforms. For windows phone you have to use a web browser, but it still works ok. In my own testing I streamed the same movie on three devices at various points in the movie and all three streamed cleanly. Pretty decent, especially for the price.

I purchase this item to transfer files from my phone to my computer. I have both an iphone and an android phone. They are both compatible with this flash drive. I was unable to transfer files (mainly large video files recorded on the phone) directly with a usb cable so I bought this wireless flash drive.
It works as advertised for the most part. Getting the connection set up is a bit quirky at times, but I think this is mainly because the flash drive has two different modes it operates in. One is as a wireless storage device, which you can connect to from the free Sandisk app on your phone. The other mode is when you plug the drive into your computer, it goes into USB mode, and is no longer accessible through the app.
I was doing some back and forth transferring, so if you're going to be trying to move numerous files and work back and forth from your computer, I haven't found an easy way to do that.
It would, however, work well as a backup drive for the photos on your phone and things like that.
Adding this product to my workflow wasn't as seamless as I would have liked.

Superb Remodeling

I bought the USB stick when it first came out and I loved the way it was remodeled. It is more compact, the design is much lighter and the button is small. I also liked the cap that was inspired from the XpandDrive. This USB is a truly refined version and I would recommend it for all who are looking to buy a USB. Keep in mind that the only complaint that the body is not slim, which cannot be a blame to SanDisk as this USB packs USB and WiFi Connectivity technology.

This device not only allows one to access their files with wireless convenience it also can physically connect to the computer for traditional file transfers. For me, its a great tool that works as it should and a high-tech way of expanding storage space in a small ergonomic package.
