The Seagate Media
app is a little
different. Made for
use with the
Seagate Wireless external
hard drive, it lets the latter
act more like a media
server. The app’s available
on Android and iOS devices
as well as Windows and Mac
desktop OSs and when using
it, you access the drive over
Wi-Fi. The app interface is
split into four folders
(music, photos, videos and
documents) that mirror
what’s on the drive and the
app lets you view all to these
various media fi les – and
you can also upload and
download these fi les over
Wi-Fi. In comparison to
external hard drive speeds,
moving stuff over Wi-Fi is
frustratingly slow, so we’d
recommend connecting the
drive through USB for
bigger fi le transfers. For
streaming media, the app
works reasonably well and it
can even stream to selected
LG smart TVs, Chromecasts
and Rokus.
