Grab the latest .dmg from the Releases page, or build from source using Xcode 15+.
Plug in your Android phone via USB and set it to File Transfer (MTP) mode. SwiftMTP will detect it automatically.

SwiftMTP currently supports English, Chinese, Japanese, and Spanish. Every user deserves a native experience in their own language — and we can't do it alone. You can improve the translation or add your new language freely. Your contribution makes a real difference.
Open Localizable.xcstrings and add your translations — it's that simple.
