Exclusive motorola software. Some features and capabilities may vary across devices and Android versions. Your phone does the heavy lifting when you use simple, one-handed gestures to launch the apps and tools you use most. Twist and shoot.
Note: Motorola Phone Tools does not work with Android devices.
Clunky, crashes a lot and not very well maintained (at least last time we checked), the Motorola Mobile Suite can do a lot of things. Unfortunately, those lots of things that we tried to do often slowed down the PC or simply crashed the system.
Motorola Mobile Phone Tools (or MPT, now known as Motorola Media Link) promises users the ability to sync and backup contact information (useless if you use Google Accounts), copy and store music and media files, provides options for phone firmware updates and more.
We also found MML to be more responsive and less prone to crashes when run on Windows XP as opposed to Windows 7.
Though if you're looking for something that's a little better but less user-friendly, we'd suggest checking out Droid Explorer, but only if you're using a modern Android-powered device.
Motorola Mobile Phone Tools can update phone firmware, manage contacts, transfer files between phone and PC and synchronize phone data.
This download is licensed as freeware for the Windows (32-bit and 64-bit) operating system on a laptop or desktop PC from mobile phone tools without restrictions. Motorola Mobile Phone Tools MML 1.5.19 is available to all software users as a free download for Windows 10 PCs but also without a hitch on Windows 7 and Windows 8.
Compatibility with this software may vary, but will generally run fine under Microsoft Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP on either a 32-bit or 64-bit setup. A separate x64 version of Motorola Mobile Phone Tools may be available from Motorola.
