Price: Free

AndroidTapp.com Android App Review:

Download Crutch is no longer in the Android Market download it here: http://tinyurl.com/download-crutch Thanks NetKid!

Features:

Download Crutch Android App is a useful utility that allows you to accept other formats when downloading via the web browser. Ever tried to download an EXE or ZIP file in the Android web browser and get the error message, “insert”? Well this app lets you download non compliant file types in the web browser.

This app was recommended by June Fabrics, creators of PdaNet, as I got a new 64bit Windows 7 laptop and needed to put the new software on. I thought no problem, I’ll download the new version via Android phone and copy to PC via USB. By default, that wasn’t happening without this utility. Once installed I could easily download the EXE file and run it from the phones SD Card storage. Even great for grabbing ROMS for Nesoid too!

Using caution when enabling potentially harmful file extensions on your Android phone, such as EXE and ZIP files.

    THEN>>>>

    How do i get it from my laptop to my phone. Which file folder on my phone do i save it to? I have a samsung moment android phone. PLEASE HELP.

    • Since it’s not in the Android Market anymore download it here: http://tinyurl.com/download-crutch Thanks NetKid… (follow the holla-hoop instructions of the download site)

      Plug into USB on your computer, the phone will automatically install drivers. Once done, you should be able to slide down the Android window shade and tap “USB Connected” then “OK”. You should then be able to see all the files on your SD Card, then drag the file from your computer location to SD Card (at this point, you can choose where to save the file). Use an Android file management app like Astro or Linda File Manager to access the file via your phone.

    So are you supposed to be able to use your phone as a router to get on the internet from your laptop? I also have another question why cant i play any games like on facebook and myspace and other game sights it wont let me download adobe so what can i do?

    this app probably cannot be found on the market anymore because droidsecurity antivirus posted on their website that this app is MALICIOUS SOFTWARE and can be used to download trojans onto your android phone.

    this is just a repetition of what was posted there (http://www.droidsecurity.com/), its up to you what you make of this information.
