Download FileKicker 3.0.1 on Windows PC – 1.2 MB

*** UPDATE ***

Since the latest Kik update on Sept3/2013, the old API no longer works and so neither does sending files over Kik with FileKicker.

I'm not deleting FileKicker from the play store because it's still kinda useful as a basic file browser, renamer, deleter, etc.

*** old description below ***

FileKicker uses Kik Messenger's API to send any file from your Android device to your friend's phone using Kik Messenger. If you don't have Kik, go check it out (it should be in the Related section)!

FileKicker is designed to be lightweight, so if you want more file managing features, try downloading ASTRO File Manager.

The file size limit is 10MB, and it is set by Kik Messenger, not by me. I'm looking into the possibility of adding a feature to break files into chunks, but I'm not sure if that will happen. Email me if you'd like to send bigger files so I can gauge interest.

By downloading and using FileKicker, you accept full responsibility for your right to share the content you share using this app.

PLEASE READ BEFORE COMMENTING: I check my email more often than the comments, so if you have problems, please email me at dev@malcolmm.cc if you actually want help! Anyway, I'm open to feedback, and if FileKicker doesn't work on your device just email me and I'll see what I can do.
