Readyshare is accessible in windows but not through Nighthawk app

The readyshare drive shows in windows 7 and 10  but not with the nighthawk app (apparently the Genie app is not compatable)installed on an iPhone 10 and with blue stacks android emulator on windows 10 laptop. With the blue stacks I can see the C drive of my home computer that the router is connected by cable, but not the ready share.

  • Not sure why you mention the Android emulator for Apps - regardless if using iOS or Android, the Nighthawk App does not allow the simple ReadyShare access and file/folder transfer with two simple tabs (local, remote) we're used to from the Netgear Genie Apps.

    Even the ReadyShare App does not have a functionality similar to the Genie App ReadyShare access.

      Is there an app that will allow access to the readyshare drive since the Genie is not compatable? The mention of the andriod emulator was just to show what I am running the app on and if it was a factor in the issue I am having
