## What is Pigeon?

Pigeon makes local file transfer simple.

Send photos, videos, documents, and other files from your iPhone to phones, tablets, and computers over the same Wi‑Fi network or personal hotspot. No cable. No extra app required on the receiving device. Just open the link in a browser, enter the access code, and start transferring.

Why Pigeon:
• Fast local transfer over Wi‑Fi or hotspot
• No extra app needed on the receiving device
• Works with phones, tablets, and computers
• Send photos, videos, documents, and more
• Easy connection with QR code, local address, and access code
• Great for iPhone to PC, iPhone to tablet, and phone-to-phone sharing

How it works:

Open Pigeon on your iPhone
Choose the files you want to send
Scan the QR code or open the local address on another device
Enter the access code
Download or upload files directly in the browser
Pigeon is designed for quick and direct sharing on your local network, making file transfer easier at home, in the office, or anywhere devices can join the same Wi‑Fi or hotspot.

Notes:
• Both devices need to be on the same Wi‑Fi network, or connected through your iPhone’s hotspot
• Keep the app in the foreground during active transfers
• Transfer speed depends on your local network quality
