## What is FileFly Network File Transfer?

Use FileFly to transfer files between your iPhone and any computer on your Wi-Fi. Windows, macOS, Linux — no cloud, no account, no size limit.

ONE APP, EVERY COMPUTER YOU OWN
Most ways of getting a file off a phone stop at the edge of one ecosystem. FileFly does not. The same app runs on Windows, macOS and Linux, and your iPhone talks to all three in exactly the same way.

iPhone to Windows — put a video on the family PC without a cable, a cloud account or an email to yourself.
iPhone to Linux — send straight to a workstation, a laptop or a home server that nothing else on your phone will talk to.
iPhone to Mac — move a folder of photos across in seconds, without waiting for anything to sync.
iPhone to iPhone — two phones on the same Wi-Fi, sending directly to each other.

It works both ways. Send from your phone to your computer, or from your computer to your phone, with the same three taps.

NOTHING TO SET UP
Install FileFly on your computer from fileflyapp.com, then open the app on your phone. Your computer is already in the list. No pairing codes, no IP addresses, no accounts at either end — the two devices find each other the moment they are on the same Wi-Fi.

SEND WITHOUT OPENING THE APP
FileFly lives in the iOS share sheet. Send a photo straight from Photos, or a document straight from Files, pick the device, and it goes.

RECEIVED FILES GO WHERE YOU EXPECT
Photos and videos are saved to your photo library. Everything else lands in the FileFly folder in the Files app, ready to open with any app on your phone.

NO LIMITS
A 4K video, a whole photo album, a disk image — if it fits on your phone, it transfers. No queue, no compression, no cap on file size, and no upload waiting on your broadband. The file crosses your Wi-Fi at the speed of your Wi-Fi.

YOU DECIDE WHAT ARRIVES
Nothing is transferred until you accept it. Every device carries its own key, shown in Settings, so you can check exactly who you are sending to before you say yes.

NOTHING IS COLLECTED
There is no account to create and no server of ours in the middle. FileFly has no analytics and gathers no data about you or your files. Your files move directly between your devices and never leave your local network.

WHAT YOU NEED
Two devices on the same Wi-Fi network, with FileFly open on both. That is the whole requirement.

### 5/5 — Working Nice on MacOS Sonoma 14.2 and Win11

*2023-12-15*

I was looking for a solution that work on my WiFi to transfer files from MacOS to Windows and vice versa. Right now I installed on both the devices from their respective offical stores. I shared files from both the end and it worked like a charm. Though it might need to test further, but at least it was working on the first try, and that worth mentioning.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work at all

*2023-04-21*

Useless, and I wish I could find one that works.
This thing doesn't work at all.
Any file sent tries to ask permission/confirmation on the destination, rendering the app completely useless. You cannot just send files to your other computers.
Also, a zip file did work, after teh above problem, so still not usable, the when I dragged a packeged file to it, lioke an app, it totally bugged out even worse.
Instead of sendinmg the package over, it complely took apart the package, and sent all of the package contents to the desktop, with no working app or folder structure. Just hundreds of files all over the desktop.
So, it's unusable in every way.
Please fix it, adn I will keep lookgin for alternatives.
It shouldn't be this hard to drop files over to another computer on my own LAN.
Until Apple fixes the alias bugs in SMB (probably never), we need an app that can handle this!
