Release Notes for MASV Beta Desktop App
Now Available: Simpler File Transfer with the New MASV Beta Desktop App (Mac, Windows & Linux)
The new MASV Desktop app makes it even easier and more reliable to send and receive files using MASV. People love MASV for its ability to send enormous files and folders through the browser with no plugins, no software, no subscriptions and no headaches.
But when you start sending the really big files, there are significant benefits of using a desktop app that retries relentlessly, thus working around network problems that will occasionally arise when sending huge files over the Web. And so the MASV Desktop App was born.
MASV Beta comes with the latest and greatest features that MASV has to offer; from internal optimizations that will squeeze even more out of your bandwidth, to game-changers like automatically downloading files from all portals using a single automation.
