## What is Local Send?

Local Send is the fastest way to share files between your iPhone, iPad, and any computer nearby. No cloud, no account, no cables — just open the app and send.

Files travel directly from one device to another over your Wi-Fi. Transfers run at full network speed, and your data never leaves your local network. Nothing is uploaded to any server. Nothing is tracked. Ever.

SEND TO ANY COMPUTER — NO APP NEEDED

- Transfer files with Mac, Windows, Linux computer through a web browser.
- Scan the QR code or type the address — nothing to install on the other device.
- Everything stays on your local network, at full Wi-Fi speed.

WHY LOCAL SEND

- Instant — open the app, tap a device, send. No setup, no sign-in.
- Private by design — direct device-to-device transfer, encrypted end to end.
- No size limits — send photos, videos, documents, and any file type.
- Works without internet — a shared Wi-Fi or hotspot is all you need.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

- Send files or entire folders between iPhone and iPad in seconds.
- Receive files from any computer through the built-in web share.
- Share text and links instantly with clipboard sync.
- Resume interrupted transfers right where they left off — no starting over.
- Save favorite devices for one-tap sending.
- Keep a searchable library of everything you receive, and export to Files or Photos.

BUILT-IN SECURITY

- Every transfer is protected with TLS encryption, using certificates generated on your own device.
- Optional PIN confirmation before any transfer is accepted.
- "Favorites only" mode — accept transfers exclusively from your own devices.
- Optional encryption for received files at rest.

TROUBLE CONNECTING? WE'LL HELP

Nearby sharing requires both devices to be on the same Wi-Fi network. If a device doesn't appear, the built-in Connection Doctor checks your network, permissions, VPN, and settings — then points you to the exact fix. No more guessing.

PRIVACY FIRST

Local Send collects no data. No accounts. Your files stay between your devices, on your network, under your control.

Open Local Send on two devices and send. It's that simple.
