SanDisk iXpand™ Drive for Positive User Reviews
✓ Love the app but some suggestionsI honestly love this app ,but some suggestions I would love you guys to focus on 1. Add a “recently deleted” folder so when you delete a picture or video you still can recover the 2.add a cropping option it will be so much easier instead of going back on photos to crop pictures and video Over all happy with the app.Version: 5.0.5
✓ Worked great! But had to reloadDevice worked great! Fast and easy. A very intuitive interface to move files and create new folders within the device, making it easy to get my photos and videos off my Apple phone. But then it stopped working! It took me a bit of research and troubleshooting to fix it. But it’s fixed! If your device stops working, you may need to remove the program from your phone or iPad, and then reinstall. I also went to Sandisk website and ran a utility to re flash the thumbdrive itself. It’s all written in the troubleshooting file on the thumbdrive, experienced computer people will have no problem, but the less experienced can do it too if they follow those instructions. I love the little device and think it’s genius, I use it all the time, to clear space on my phone and get my pics onto the computer. So it was worth the trouble to keep it working. Hopefully newer models won’t have this problem?.Version: 5.3.8
✓ My Mobile Entertainment StickI love this app and drive it gives me the ability to take all my videos on holidays with me . The only frustrating thing is that it renames the photos to unintelligible and non-numerical file names which make it impossible to put in order when backing up on your home pc..Version: 5.0.7
✓ Does what it says on the labelThis little drive has plenty of space - even for me with my movie creations - and is so simple to use. In fact, I don't know what took me so long to get one. Superb for backing up all your images and videos. The only drawback? For me, it only really works properly on one iPad, but this is a minor point. Highly recommended..Version: 4.4.3
✓ Great appI really like interface of the app..Version: 5.3.10
✓ Reliable backupI have a 32G and 128G. They both work fine with my iPhone 6s. I have tried a few others. But this is the only one that stays working after iOS changes from 8, 9, to 10. Those made by other non-brand names just seem not able to keep up with the iOS changes. This stick also works fast. Almost plug and go. The one drawback is that it does heat up considerably when it's plugged in to the phone. Also, a nuisance is the clumsy way of navigating through picture albums. I have to keep scrolling to jump to the last picture of an album, which can take a while if there are thousands of pictures in that album..Version: 4.4.2
✓ Nice music player too!If you want your iTunes collection on a 'stick' instead if sucking up precious space on your iPad, move a copy of your entire iTunes folder and play it through this app. Just plug the USB 3.0 stick into your computer and go. Bear in mind, this is a stripped down player so some iTunes generated 'compilations' may not show, nor 'genres', nor 'playlists' but 'artist' and 'album' do. AND you can make new playlists in the app and edit them. Shuffle is also available. I blast my stuff through a JBL Flip6 bluetooth speaker and the party has started! Now all San Disk has to do is allow this app a greater sense of freedom when it comes to device orientation. It seems to get 'stuck' sometimes..Version: 5.3.13
✓ When your phone won’t speak to your computer...No I didn’t want iCloud storage... I have terabyte external hard drive and lap top capable of holding the memory... my phone refuses to speak to my laptop for downloading photos. The scan disc is simple to use and does what I need it to. Can get a little fidly but user friendly. Thank you.Version: 5.3.4
✓ BrilliantNot really explored the full use of the drive but so far so good Very simple way to back up your images My only complaint is it's super small so I keep it in a little orange box by the bed - it would be really handy if you could attach it to a key chain etc.Version: 4.4.2
✓ Perfect!Easy to use and does exactly what you need it to, I was relieved as I bought an iStick years ago and the software stopped working with the updated IOS. I bought this as it was compatible with iPhone XS Max and to my delight the software that comes in the app was far superior - don’t settle for cheaper substitutes this is a nice little stick - especially for my line of work which requires photos to be taken on the move and quick transfer to laptops. I just wish I was this satisfied with every purchase I make..Version: 5.3.2
✓ Photo backupsThis app and drive have been a great way of saving my wanted photos from the ph while out and about. It is also a very convenient way to transfer across to my laptop while in the move..Version: 5.0.3
✓ Back up iPhone XWow this iexpand drive is fantastic. It’s lightning fast, neat and so easy to use. Wish I’d had one before my last iPhone X was stolen along with all those irreplaceable pics and videos. Highly recommend this device and will guard it fastidiously from now on..Version: 5.0.10
✓ Works, Quick, Easy to useI bought an ixpand mini after my new Transcend Go failed to work on my new ipad. Got to say the san Disk product worked right away and smoothly plays videos straight from the stick. The software is simple to use and works. What more do you want? The product is smaller cheaper and far more effective than the Transcend product..Version: 5.0.9
✓ EasyThe great thing about iXpand is it’s so easy to use. It acts as a great backup and storage stick for all my Photos, Videos and Contacts so critical to my business interests. I fully recommend the iXpand it’s an essential business and personal storage device..Version: 5.3.9
✓ A ParadoxJust bought this, and when I went to copy less than 15 files, it would only do 4. I tried several times, but still it did not work. Did some reading, and apparently it really doesn't work right if iCloud is set up. And if I turn off iCloud, I will not have have access to the photos. That’s what I would call a paradox - cant fix something without breaking another. However, I DID find a way around this I believe. If I go through my photos, I can upload then from there (like I was sending a message). It also saves the correct file name. It’ll just be time consuming this way..Version: 5.0.3
✓ Scan diskExcellent product. Use mine once a year in January to download all my iPhone and IPad photos then transfer to laptop and a flash drive Certainly more convenient than using the cord. This year bought a 128 gb to ensure all photos can be stored and transferred Well worth the money. Simple to use.Version: 5.3.14
✓ Finally found what I was looking forHave wanted something that can easily take my photos from my phone & put straight into my PC. IXPAND does the job perfectly.Version: 5.3.1
✓ Sandisc ThumbdriveAmazing little device. Copy your computer docs and view on your cell. Easy to use, handy and a must have..Version: 5.3.12
✓ IXpand flash drive luxe 256 GBGood storage.Version: 5.3.14
✓ My stick is not compatible with iPhone XOverall this product and app are the best inventions for iPhone family except for iPhone X. I have done some researches and some users had the same issue with iPhone X and it appears to be its hardware compatibility..Version: 4.6
✓ Backing up of my photosI find this memory stick very good. But sometimes it takes quite a while to download my photos and eats out all my batteries before it has done that I’m not sure if that is a feature that can be updated as a lot of you charge.Version: 5.3.2
✓ J’adoreSimple et rapide !!.Version: 5.3.14
✓ Great Little ToolGreat little tool for saving images from iPhone or transferring them to iPad or MacBook for later use or editing. Everyone should have one of these in their toolbox..Version: 5.3.2
✓ TransferringWhen I tried to transfer from phone I struggled to get this done before it was straightforward so o was unable to transfer please put it back to view delete transfer as before. Annoyed what app do I have to download now.Version: 5.0.9
✓ Quick. Simple. Seamless.A pleasure to use this little device. A quality fitting and the software that runs it completely intuitive. The only trouble is misplacing the little gizmo!.Version: 5.0.6
✓ Love the iXpand driveLove the iXpand drive, you can create named folders, so images can be saved from your iPhone, iPad etc, into them making it very easy to locate photos in the future. Numerous other functions available, very good purchase..Version: 5.0.3
✓ Pretty goodIt pretty much does what it says on the tin. Don’t understand TopReel because it played everything from the app. Also it seems to hang on some photos when downloading them to the stick. But it’s a pretty nifty app and device. Have used many times with my iPad and phone and plan to do so in the future..Version: 5.0.5
✓ New to iXpandWhilst I was overseas my iPhone was near to capacity, I tried to purchase a iXpand to no avail. Back in Australia I purchased 2, I now have only used it a couple of times and it just automatically transferred my picture to iXpand. I have now purchased one for my daughter. I have still to try iXpand on my iPad..Version: 5.0.9
✓ Good app easy to useGood app.Version: 4.5
✓ Great product and simple to useGreat product. Extremely easy to use without constant updates crashing your system. Had it for years and definitely recommend to others wanting a powerful simply system to transfer photos from iPhone to USB quickly..Version: 5.0.3
✓ This thing has been a lifesaver for meThe most efficient and reliable way I’ve found to get thousands of photos off my ohone. Easy to use..Version: 5.3.13
✓ So easy to use!I just plug the SanDisk into my iPhone XS MAX and approve access to my photos. This SanDisk automatically begins making copies of everything in your photo library, and contacts list of you wish. If the SanDisk is interrupted, for example you decide to charge your phone, the SanDisk continues where it left off on it own when it reinserted. Amazing product! There is also a small window about 1/4” X 1/4” showing which images are currently being copied. I have used several brands claiming to do the same thing, but this SamDisk actually works. It was worth every penny..Version: 5.3.13
✓ Good but needs ImprovementThis is great to save storage. BUT, One of the biggest problems I have is that if you delete something from the iXpand (folders, photos, videos, etc.) and if it’s on accident, it’s gone for good. There’s no “Deleted” section and I’ve spent all day and $70 trying to find a recovery for the iXpand. My advice is that you need to give iXpand a Deleted/Recyling Bin. That way if the users delete something on accident then they can get it back. The other thing is you can’t remove things from folders. I’ve tried, it doesn’t work. You delete the entire thing doing so. There needs to be a way to do that to. Or if you delete the folder, you should be asked if you want to deleted the content within it or just folder and the content can stay..Version: 5.0.8
✓ Great, but can be improved. (Please read)I just bought this and when I plugged it in it immediately redirected me to the App Store. This is a very nice feature that I have never known of. This app is very quick and helps you backup all of your files backed up. I have lost my contacts so many times and then I bought this thing because I had extra money to flex and bought a 32gb iExpand and was very satisfied with the results. Here are a few things that would help. 1. Add waterproof. (I don’t know if it has it and I’m not going to test it.) 2. Backup notes from the notes app. 3. Make a better casing for the usb. (It scratches pretty easily.) 4. Make it so that when your on a third party app you can browse the app from the third party app instead of downloading and then going to library. 5. Add fingerprint passcode to show files. 6. Re-make the browse files. (I don’t know why but it doesn’t show photos in the photo folder. It only shows if you click on photos).Version: 5.0.8
✓ Massively UsefulReally great app! Finally, a way to get round the fixed internal storage capacity - and refusal to allow MicroSD cards - of the iPhone. My only quibble is that the app is focused on copying photos & videos, while audio files - e.g. Voice Memos - don't seem to be catered for. You CAN back up audio files, but you have to do it from the Voice Memo app, via Share & enabling iXpand Drive in the share options..Version: 4.4.2
✓ JRZ product testing managerQuick back up, easy access, connect you quick connections with the finger and all was done and matter of seconds very polite asking questions whether we like the service and we do. Thank you very much. Hopefully this helps for any future people who want to buy this product. They are doing a good job with this product..Version: 5.3.14
✓ New Update Keeps CrashingUpdate : This new update has fixed my problem!!! Thank You!!!! I love this app!!! But since the newest update it keeps crashing when you try to transfer a file into PowerPoint. This app honestly has helped me so much for the year that I have had it. I wish i didn’t have to give it a bad review right now but with me being so reliant on this app to do my work I really had to get in touch some way and this was they only way I knew. So please whoever fixes these things please fix the bug I cant do my work and it really stinks. P.S. (I will delete or edit this review if an update fixes the problem) In response to this complaint, I was told to make sure that my iPad was updated to the version 13.7 and it is. If that wasn’t the case then I was told to uninstall and reinstall the app to see if that worked (It didn't). If neither of these worked I was told to contact SanDisk support and I did. The person was very helpful and gave me some possible solutions as to what probably needed to be done to fix the issue. But neither of the possible solutions worked and my chat was disconnected after the solutions were given. So I am still no where closer to getting this fixed and still think that the app has a problem as I wasn’t having any issues until this last update. (My 1 Star will have to stay for know sorry).Version: 5.3.4
✓ ICloud photos crash appI had troubled to sort issue because I didn't turn off iCloud photo backup, Once you turn off iCloud backup, application works fine. It would be good for if there is advisory msg to turn off iCloud backup as it crash the app. Very handy and intelligent device. Good work..Version: 5.3.10
✓ Nobody is quite perfectAlthough the system is tremendous in its design it doesn’t allow for people such as myself who are site impaired and have difficulty in reading very small writing and very odd colour coordination that hide the instructions maybe that something that you can look at to make life easier for those who have visual difficulties thank you I’m enjoying it My name is Jason from Australia.Version: 5.0.10
✓ Awesome experience, jus luv it!!!Great experience, very easy to use, luv it!!!!.Version: 5.0.3
✓ Easy to use.It easily stores photos and video that I don't readily need on my iPod all the time. The transition when you swipe between photos isn't as smooth as the iPods native system, and you can't smoothly scroll a video backward and forward, so when I'm studying video of a customer's feet, while making their shoes, I need to drop it back over to the iPod to do this. Apart from these two minor gripes, it greatly extends the usefulness of my 32Gb iPod. Oh, and I would like to be able to save other types of files, as well, straight from the iPod (unless I'm missing something and you can?).Version: 4.6
✓ IOS 15, can’t move files around on flash driveThis is awesome to have for someone, like me, that loves to use their phone for photography and wants to free up space quickly for more. The only downside right now is that since I updated my iPhone 12 to iOS 15, I can’t use my iPhone to transfer files between folders on this device. I used to before iOS 15. When I try it now, regardless if I select copy or move folder, nothing happens when I press the move/copy here button. I’ve tried clearing cache, restarting my phone and even deleting the app & reinstalling it. Only way I can move files around now is with my computer..Version: 5.3.10
✓ Fabulous!!!It’s been great to get photos off my phone and my laptop twitch great simplicity!!! Thanks iXPAND!!! 😊😊😊.Version: 5.3.2
✓ Useful, but has limitationsI really like this bit of kit but I find the limit on the video file size annoying and you can only back up photos and videos shot on the iPhone / pad camera. Apart from that it's great to have a large video library to hand and not just in MP4 format..Version: 4.4.2
✓ Love it!Such an easily accessible and convenient product. 100% worth the money and satisfaction guaranteed. It’ makes transferring photos from device to device a breeze!.Version: 5.3.0
✓ Free back up without wifiNo need to pay for Cloud back up of photos, or depend on wifi to back up - fantastic! Learning to copy files is different from the automatic copying of photos, but still great when you master it. Occasionally I need to try a couple of times to get it to work, but usually it’s quite reliable, so I love it!.Version: 5.3.14
✓ Great way to take my service manuals with me.I’m on the road servicing various industrial equipment. To carry manuals for everything I work on would require me to pull a trailer, ha, so I have a “Work” directory on my laptop, with my pdf manuals organized by manufacturers. This little drive allows me to carry that 34 gig file in my pocket, on my phone or iPad. Unlike some other lightning thumb drives, this one maintains my file directory structure so I can easily locate my manuals. I do find that if my device goes to sleep I may have to close the program and restart because it thinks the drive is missing, this one little inconvenience is why I didn’t give 5 stars..Version: 5.0.10
✓ Great DeviceI have only put this ‘My expand Drive’ to use a few days ago and I can’t tell you how happy I am to have bought it . It’s got my iPhone working so much better by how much storage space it creates by backing every photo of mine up! And in record time. Highly recommend this product. Thank you ..Version: 5.3.14
✓ It worksFive stars just because it does its job. One end goes (awkwardly) into the Ipad. Back-up occurs automatically. You can then remove it, and insert the other end into any USB port, and so transfer photos or videos or music between ipad and desktop. It’s a solution to a problem I have faced some a couple of years. Happy!.Version: 5.0.5
✓ Nice App - a few suggestionsI really enjoy this App, but I wish it was easier to upload chats with friends and items other than photos. I would also like to see my photos instead of folders, when I name a group of photos, and have them easier to organize. Finally, I would like to have the app take up less space on my phone; I noticed when I transfer items from my phone to my device, my "Settings" menu shows the app as having more data than before I uploaded items to my device. I then have the need to delete the app and reinstall it so that my used memory goes down..Version: 5.1
✓ Big DisappointmentI have been using a Lexar 16GB USB / lightning dongle for years, and got iXpand 128GB stick as an upgrade. The functionality is really poor. Backing up photos it creates a complex folder structure based on years and months when photo was taken. The photos are given a new random alphanumeric file name. This is only good for full backup/ restore operations. Whereas the Lexar backs up all the camera roll into a single folder, with separate folder for contacts. And it prefixes the file creation date and time string to the original file name. This results in a date sortable photo archive, where the photo date can never be lost because it’s in the name! This archive is then easy to copy anywhere you like. iXpand does allow manual copy paste of selected photos but can’t add date info to the file name. Please add this file dating feature urgently. Please copy Lexar’s great functionality..Version: 5.3.13
✓ Better than a very good AppleSimple to use and supports data transfer both onto and off the iPhone (and iPad) Total winner for managing photos, music and contacts in particular!.Version: 4.4.2
✓ GoooooooodGoooooooooooooood.Version: 5.0.9
✓ Great solution!An excellent solution to an old problem! Simple to use and helps when transferring files between iPhone and Windows PC! (and vice versa!) I had problems with the first one I bought but the manufacturers were extremely obliging and once I’d filled in the necessary forms an exchange was sorted without any problems!.Version: 5.3.2
✓ IXpand drivesVery happy with two"old" drives (16 & 32 Gb) but they aren't recognised by latest iPhone OS so bought two 128 Gb drives (one of each type). The one with the rotating cover is great, but the one with the old style bendy connection is awful - the bendy arm is to stiff to use as frequently as I need to. The older bendy arms were OK but the new one is almost impossible to position accurately without scraping the terminals. Can't see it lasting very long..Version: 5.3.0
✓ Feature request: display the file which is corruptedThe backup works pretty well, however, for some reason there’s a (corrupted?) media file which makes the all process abort. Although a generic failure message is displayed, it would be great to know exactly which item causes the issue. Then I would just delete the corrupted file and run the backup again. Problem is that I have about 4000 media files stored on my iPhone that I want to backup, so, it’s impossible for me to determine which one is the problem. Thanks for taking that in consideration!.Version: 5.3.10
✓ Problème avec photoComment faire pour garder et photographier des photos en jpg..Version: 5.3.14
✓ What a toolFreed up my phone of my pictures having four year old twins I can get a little snappy with the camera. However it can be a little unreliable I could not get it to connect to my phone the other day, plugged it in to my computer this fixed it no reason why it did not hi light any issue it just solved the problem. Hope it keeps working as it is a proper tool for a 16 GB iPhone memory is always an issue..Version: 5.3.0
✓ Improved but lost featuresI have had an up and down experience with IXPAND over the last two years, it used to consistently crash in the middle of back ups etc. It seams to have hugely improved recently but why have you removed social media backup?.Version: 5.3.9
✓ DownloadWould like a feature to back up photos but not to duplicate the download. Flash disk is fast and easy to navigate..Version: 5.3.9
✓ IXpand flash driveWhat a great piece of kit, so easy to use, when you first connect to your phone or iPad it will ask you if you want to install the app to use for extracting your files/photos then it’s straight forward to extract your files onto the flash drive thus giving you more space to store more photos, you can also add photos/files back on to your device from the flash drive if wish, and you can also play the files on a usb device to..Version: 5.0.6
✓ Simple things that should have an option to be disabledGreat app, love the compatibility. The largest turn off for me is the “arranging your content” at the start. I see how this is useful, but when you got a drive packed full of content that is not images, vids, and pictures, then the process takes ages. I would like the ability to disable so that I can use the normal file explorer capability for my less then average file types. Also.... totally unrelated, but the ability to compile some basic languages besides the html which seems to be already implemented, would be kinda cool. But that’s not too important 😛.Version: 5.3.10
✓ ClaudeWow!!! This has been a long waited for device. SanDisk really pushed the bar up with this device. The 32 flash drive is small, convenient, and economical. If you have been thinking about purchasing a new phone with more memory pump your brakes and slow your roll. SanDisk Flash Drive is your answer. It works excellent with Apple Devices (iPad, IPhone, and Mack) plus your home PC. However, you cannot save files from your home PC on to this device, but you can open files that you saved from your Apple Devices for viewing on your home PC. Enjoy and have fun!!!.Version: 5.0.5
✓ First time to useTake time to test ?.Version: 5.3.14
✓ It just worksFantastic simple app that really works. You put the stick in you select your photos and it copied them across. So much easier then using iTunes. It will play any movie file. Brilliant.Version: 5.0.7
✓ What do watch out for when using iXpand!IXpand does what it says - however, watch out for the load you’re doing - because If you copy or transfer big files, your device may run out of power and may not copy/transfer all the photos you want copied or transferred; to prevent this from happening, load only in small batches, and do it when the phone is hardly going to be used, or when your device is fully charged - iXpand and your device use the same port to copy and charge so that you cannot charge your device while iXpand is hooked up and copying pictures-ok?.Version: 5.0.6
✓ Small yet MammothThis tiny storage accessory has changed the way I do things. Moving large amounts of data from one device to another is as easy as falling off a log. Or used simply to add extra storage to any device. The software that comes with it is super easy to install and use. Top marks from me!.Version: 5.3.2
✓ Best Backup DriveLove it so quick and so easy to use. Very impressed wish I knew about this long ago. Comes highly recommended. I feel confident that my memories are safe on this drive and so easy to transport the photos to my computer storage. I’ve been using SanDisk for many many years, never let me down I won’t use anything else. Thank you 😊.Version: 5.3.12
✓ IXpand DriveExcellent! I now can save all my photos etc to iXpand. I don't know what happened in Edinburgh when I was told they had to restore my phone to factory settings... But I wish I had that young chaps name from the Lincolnshire shop who said - " Just buy a iXpand and save everything onto it - it will hold all your holiday photos safely " So glad I did - I love it...🙌🙌🙌🙌 I am buying another device to save all my Herbology...Healing and Cures on....Version: 4.4.2
✓ Not able to put files back into the phone.I can’t put files or photos from my computer into my iPhone. That’s why I’m only giving it 3 stars..Version: 5.3.12
✓ Great app !!Very handy app when traveling and Icloud start tellingv you you've run out of storage space on the IPhone. Just copy to the flash drive and delete from your phone. !! A no stress solution..Version: 5.0.9
✓ Great Tool, but One Major FlawThis USB is great at transferring files from your PC (word docs, movies and photos) and makes it easy to open them up on my iDevices. HOWEVER! I have yet to find a way to transfer files the other way (photos are fine) I cannot save a word doc from the app to my USB, to the app or even copy it over from Files. To work around this, I have to save it to iCloud or OneDrive and reopen it on my PC. This kind of ruins the purpose and makes it a more efficient way to view files, not edit and transfer files. If there is a way to do this, please send me a link to the instructions! If not, add this feature please!.Version: 4.7
✓ It's just ok, I'm happy with itUnfortunate you can't save photos from within a text to ixpand. It takes you through all the steps to save so I know the ability is there, however inevitably every single time it will reveal ERROR -FAILED TO SAVE So you end up having to take the long route and save it to your photo library first (defeats the purpose when your intent is to free up your photo library) Then, with that, be prepared to save 1 picture at a time. It's so basic you are even unable to "select all" and move all photos from your photo library to ixpand. It only allows you to move 1-10 at a time. Not too great when you're trying to transfer 1,000 pictures With that being said, it does me ok. It's just if you're looking for something that's technologically "current" , this definately isn't it.Version: 4.6
✓ Sandisk mini20 for iPhoneI had to buy a further sandisk because my first one of these has failed it will no longer open on my iPhone. If I need to access the photos stored on my old one I had to plug it into a laptop, so at least I still have my photographs. But be aware. I had the old one approx 4 years and it is no where full at all..Version: 5.3.13
✓ Good so far...This USB stick has a lightning connection so you can use it on your devices that have the lightning connection. The upload is quick & you have an option on which photos you want left on your device. Excellent for freeing up space. It’s around $70AUD but a necessity for people who upload photos to their devices for editing..Version: 5.0.6
✓ Best Way to Clear up Storage on PhoneBefore I got my iXpand drive I had to update my storage and pay monthly in order to keep all my photos and storage free. Since I got my drive I’ve downloaded all of my photos and videos and cleared up 62gb on my phone. I was able to stop paying the monthly fee. You can also really Organize everything into folders and name your videos so that you know what your looking for. Has helped clean out my storage and help keep my photos organized. Would highly recommend! I did start with the 32gb and quickly filled it up with only half of my camera roll so I would go with a bigger version of you have a lot to export!.Version: 5.3.2
✓ Super handy, efficient, one major file naming problemIn this little drive is easy to work with and very helpfull to keep my phone free to shoot more photos and video. I shoot a lot. I definitely recommend the drive. One concern has cost me no end of grief and that is edited video that was shot on my iPhone and edited on iMovie for iPhone was exported to the drive on two occasions where it over wrote a previous video. The previous video had been done a day earlier. This happened twice while I was in China and I lost all my edits. This happened twice before I realized what was happening and could stop the bleeding by placing videos into their own separate folders. Very inefficient, and a real pain. Not an elegant workaround but a workaround nonetheless. Hence the four stars which, considering the nature of the problem might actually make it deserve two stars, you decide. I’ve been happy with the Drive in all other respects..Version: 5.0.6
✓ This is greatThis is the best Flash drive I ever see which could free up my iPad and iPhone. BUT I just have a question because I downloaded the app do I save my pictures and files in this physical iXpand Flash drive or save on the app or some cloud which could be access by the company or hackers? The reason I didn’t give you 5 star because of that big but question:).Version: 4.6
✓ BrilliantFantastic bit of hardware - does exactly what it is supposed to and makes everything very easy when it comes to transferring files etc across without having to use iTunes..Version: 5.0.6
✓ Don’t buyIt reduced the quality of pics and videos after transfer data from iPhone.Rubbish ..Version: 5.3.2
✓ Works well, but…This app works pretty well, but the build in option to record from your device directly to your usb stick is designed very badly. At first glance, it has no controls, not even tap to focus, but it’s just hidden. If you’re in a dark room and tap somewhere and then slide your finger up, it will brighten the video just like the normal camera app would. Please put more effort into it, i think it’s really cool. Besides that, there’s another issue. First one (minor) being that after backing up the photos automatically, my main phone’s app prompts me to delete, selectively delete, or just not at all. I always click delete all of course, but that popup prompt never shows on my other devices, such as my iPhone 7 or SE 1st generation, but it does on my iPhone 11. Another pretty big issue is that on the iPhone 7, it completely fails to back up any more photos on the phone. It has already backed up close to ~1500, but it refuses to back up any more. (and choosing the build in record to usb camera icon will crash the app after selecting video) Not a dealbreaker, still very cool, but i wish some of these issues were fixed or the app was more polished..Version: 5.3.14
✓ Compact and easy to use.This is a handy little device to use on your iPhone especially if you have limited capacity to store photos. I have used it between my iPhone and the MacBook and it works perfectly..Version: 5.3.13
✓ Great deviceVery easy to use but sometimes the device would freeze. I would definitely recommend to my family and friends!.Version: 5.3.10
✓ Love this thingThis is such a great item I use if for various tasks and I gotta say it performs very well. I must also say that this could be perfect if it had the ability to automatically run software on it like iOS updates and auto backups without the app being installed first. I fix phones so getting an auto backup is something that could be the best feature for this device. Make it so I can get my job done faster and easier and trust me your device will sell off the shelves of every retailer known to man!! I rate this as the very best....so far..Version: 4.8
✓ Excellent app butWhen adding files to the vault, we cannot organise the files. That is within the vault we cannot move files into folders within the vault and so forth. This is really frustrating as everything will be piled up inside this one folder, the vault. Pls update :3.Version: 4.5
✓ Works perfectlyThere are quite a lot of comments here that say they have issues with this device and app which almost put me off buying the ixpand memory stick. I took the chance and I am glad I did. I have used it for my iphone 6s and my wife’s first gen iphone se. It all worked perfectly and copied something like 3k photos and videos in one go from both phones with zero issues. It also did it it quicker than I imagined. Great product and great app!.Version: 5.3.14
✓ Wrong formatDownloading in an HEIC format instead of jpg. Tried changing settings..Version: 5.3.10
✓ Good butHaving trouble saving PDF files to Sandisk flash drive 3.0 Problematic to save docs with the iOS share sheet. It takes me through the process as if it can do it, and then gives me a message that 0 files were saved. No problems saving photos..Version: 5.0.8
✓ Great appLove this app perfect.Version: 5.3.3
✓ Fantastic driveWe bought the iexpand drive, and used the app to back up irreplaceable Live Photo’s . Unlike other devices. It keeps the Live Photo’s intact. Allowing you to view them from the drive. And let’s you restore them to the camera roll . Worth every penny can’t recommend enough..Version: 4.5
