Xender App for PC, Laptop Download (Windows 7/8/8.1/10) (With and Without Bluestacks)

If you are looking for a file sharing application that lets you send and receive any number of files, try the Xender app. With the help of Xender app, you can send not only a large number of files, but also files of various kinds (i.e. extensions). This is one of the fastest and most efficient file sharing applications in this world. It provides an easy interface that even first time users will find relatable.

Before Xender or any other file sharing app came into being, we had to rely on Blutooth connection. Blutooth connection was the only way in which we could transfer files from one Android phone to another. It used to be pretty difficult back then, since file transfer via Blutooth was a time consuming process. Besides, the sender and receiving phones had to be “paired” in order to establish a successful connection. Music files, image files and others took a considerable amount of time to get completely transferred to the recipient phone.

Then with newer technology came better and faster ways of file transfer. Now we use file transfer apps like Xender, to get our jobe done faster and more efficiently. You can easily transfer small and large video, image, document and music files using Xender in a jiffy.

When you have the Xender app on your smart phone, you can quickly receive and send files to another smart phone, without using a data cable or even mobile Internet connection. It does not matter which operating system your smart phones runs on – Android or iOS, Xender is available for both.

Xender allows simultaneous file sharing between a maxium of 4 devices at one go. This makes it the perfect app to use among a small group of people. You might have come across many file sharing apps which ultimately force you to use mobile data or Bluetooth. But Xender is not one among them. It is much simpler to deal with. You can send and receive files from another device directly using Xender at very high speed, via a direct file transfer channel. This does not use your mobile internet data , nor does it use Bluetooth technology.But what do you do when you need to share files between your smart phone and your computer?

Use Xender.

Gone are the days when Xender was meant for use only on your smart phones. Now you can also use Xender app to send and receive files from your Windows computer and even smart TV. For that you only need to download and install the Xender app on your Windows PC or laptop.
