4shared is there to let you share a variety of files with others on the Internet. The Android app works with the famous 4shared cloud-based file sharing service, which allows anyone to upload files like documents, movies and software, then share them either with a select group of people or with the public. While Android users can access the 4shared service through a web browser just like PC users do, the mobile app has an interface that is a lot more suited to the smaller screens of mobile devices and makes using the service easier.
As the file sharing service is accessible on all platforms, you can use it to share content with anyone, no matter the device they use to access the Internet. For example, you can upload a movie from your Android tablet and someone on a Windows PC can download it just by opening the link in their web browser.
4shared gives you the ability to backup important files to the cloud, share files with a chosen group or to make all of your uploads accessible to the public. One convenient feature that the app has is that you can now choose to automatically upload new photos and videos to your 4shared account. You can choose to only enable this option when you're connected to the Internet through Wi-Fi.
If you like listening to music, reading digital books or watching movies on your Android device, the 4shared app has a search feature that you're likely to find very handy. You can use it to search through all public uploads made to the service. If another user has shared the file you want with the world, you can instantly download it. While this functionality is convenient, there are still a few improvements that could be made to it. The search results are display in a text list, without any thumbnails or previews. The ads displayed in the search menu can sometimes take too much screen space and obstruct your ability to see all results on certain devices.
The service itself is quite reliable and one of the fastest around. If you're looking for an easy way to sync your media across multiple devices, share documents with people working together on a project or upload your creations so they can be available to the whole world, 4shared is an app you need to have on your mobile device.
