Minus – Simple File Sharing Through Your Android Device

Minus is a free app and service for sharing files between your Android devices and your computers. You can share files through Minus by uploading them from your device to your account or by capturing images and videos with your device. Minus does offer some basic image editing tools.

With a Minus account (free for up to 50mb of storage) you can share and access your files from an Android device, an iOS device, and through your desktop/ laptop computer. In fact, adding files to Minus on a desktop is a very simple drag and drop procedure. When you upload a file to Minus, you are provided an HTML code that you can use to embed your file into a blog post or website.

The video below offers a short overview of Minus.

Minus could be useful for students working on collaborative projects to quickly swap files that they need to share with each other. Minus also makes it easy for teachers to post documents online that they would like their students to read and discuss.
