First, you need to install an SSH server on your Android.We will need an SSH client and an SSH server running on the computer and Android respectively. Or, you don’t have to authenticate every time you connect to your Android device. Unlike Pushbullet or AirDroid, there is no file size limit. Moreover, SSH lets you transfer files securely to your Android device.
Though, to take full advantage of this, you’ll have to be familiar with the terminal command. You can issue commands like ls, mkdir, find, etc. SSH lets you completely control your Android over WiFi. You can access your Android via SSH without root. In case, you just want to SSH your Android, rooting your Android device is too far a step.
