Browse Android data from Mac

Olga Weis 2019-08-08

As there is no native option to mount Android phones and tablets on Mac to browse Android content in Finder, you'll need a third-party app to achieve this. Think SyncMate!

SyncMate Expert lets you mount Android devices as Mac disks to access their content (internal and external storages) from Finder. All folders and files on Android are accessible: you can view, copy, manage images (photos, chat images or downloaded ones), videos, music, downloaded files, etc.

A little bit about SyncMate

SyncMate will sync your Mac with Android phones or tablets as well as let you mount your Android devices as Mac disks.

There are two editions of SyncMate available - Free edition that syncs personal data like contacts and calendars and Expert edition that syncs videos, images, music, playlists, folders with multiple files, etc. Expert also allows creating, deleting and managing text messages directly on Mac screen with its convenient keyboard.
