Recently we celebrated the arrival of a new version of AirDroid, which is probably the best app out there for controlling your Android from a PC. It was a welcome change given that its new interface conforms to Material Design standards. Everything was going fine until Zimperium, a firm focused on business mobile security, detected problems that put users' data at risk. Panic spread like wildfire, although the ensuing days have shown that it might not be quite so big of a deal. [Editor's Update: The security issues have been resolved as of December 15.] We get, though, that you might still have worries about AirDroid – heck, I do myself – so here are four alternatives (plus an extra) to this popular app.

This way, you can manage all of your device's content from a much more comfortable interface and with the reliable help of the mouse. You can add and remove elements from the device, uninstall applications and perform heaps of different actions.
The application's most useful tool, however, will be the one that allows you to exchange elements like photos, songs and videos from the phone to the computer and viceversa, in the fastest and most comfortable way.
Another advantage that's quite interesting is that you can write messages from the browser's interface and automatically send them through the Android device, with the obvious comfort that this entails.
The best thing is that the interface, being executed directly from the browser, works perfectly from any operating system the likes of Google Chrome, Mozilla or Safari. This means that regardless of the computer you have, you can still enjoy the application.
AirDroid is a very useful tool for any Android user that tends to rely on his device a lot, as it will make many tasks all that easier.

The dangers were limited to connections over unsecured networks but it was still a serious issue. Luckily, as of this week we can say the problem has been solved: the new AirDroid update has fixed the security problems.
