Editors' Review

Wondershare MobileGo for Android links your mobile phone to your Windows PC via Wi-Fi for super-easy uploading, downloading, backups, apps management, and more. It's a two-part system, with a free Android app on your phone or tablet and premium software on your Windows PC. The Android app includes a speed-up feature that frees up memory and closes unneeded apps. The Windows program does much more, like installing apps, sending SMS, finding duplicate contacts, transferring files and contacts, importing and converting music and other media files (including iTunes playlists), and one-click backup of all or some of your phone's data and records to your PC.

Pros

QR Code Wi-Fi-to-PC: We merely had to scan a QR Code on our Windows PC with MobileGo's Android app to establish a Wi-Fi connection between our phone and PC.

One-click backup: It covers pictures, videos, and other media in its backups.

Musically inclined: Basically, Wondershare was designed for music and video enthusiasts who like to text.

USB, too: No Wi-Fi? You can connect to your PC with MobileGo through your phone's USB cable, too.

Cons

Bit pricey: MobileGo for Android isn't expensive, and you can try it free for 15 days. But free apps replicate many of its features, if not its convenience.

Bottom Line

Wondershare's MobileGo for Android is one of the easiest ways to tether your phone and PC we've tried, and it handily bested our phone's native app in convenience and reliability. Considering the value and importance of your phone, data, contacts, and so on, MobileGo's price seems quite reasonable.
