Local File Share

Local File Share lets you send and receive files between nearby phones and computers over the same Wi-Fi or hotspot network. Files go directly from device to device, without a cable and without uploading them to a cloud service. SEND AND RECEIVE NEARBY - Pick photos, videos, music, documents or app installation files (APK) and add them to your share queue. - Nearby devices running Local File Share on the same network appear in the Nearby Radar. Tap a receiver to send your queued files. - Switch to Receive mode to accept files from other devices. - Add a device manually with its IP address and port, or show a QR code that another phone can scan with its camera to connect. - Follow the progress and history of your transfers. SHARE WITH A PC OR ANY BROWSER - WebDrop turns your phone into a local web portal. Open the address shown in the app in any browser on the same network. - Download the files in your share queue, or download them all as one ZIP file. - Upload files from a computer to your phone from the browser. - Show a QR code so another phone can open the link quickly. BROWSE AND PREVIEW YOUR FILES - Browse files by category: photos, videos, music, documents, apps and received files. - Search, select several files at once and mark favorites. - Preview images, play videos and audio, read PDF pages and view file details before sharing. TOOLS - Images to PDF: combine images into one PDF document. - PDF to images: save PDF pages as separate images or as one long image. - Video to audio: extract the audio track of a video into an audio file. - Safe Box: move private files into a PIN-protected box where they are encrypted on your device. - Storage cleaner: find and remove temporary, cache and duplicate files created inside the app. SETTINGS - Choose the local port used for transfers and WebDrop. - Optional large socket buffer for local network throughput. - Light and dark themes. - Set your device nickname and avatar color so others recognize you. GOOD TO KNOW - Both devices must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network or hotspot. - Local transfers do not upload your files to the internet. WebDrop has no password, so use it on networks you trust. - Photos and videos are chosen with the Android photo picker, so the app does not need access to your whole photo library. Music access is used to list audio files. - Location or Nearby Wi-Fi devices permission is required by Android for local network discovery. - Local File Share is free and contains ads.
