## What is Zagel?

Zagel sends files, photos, videos, text and links between your iPhone, Android phone and Mac, as long as they're on the same Wi-Fi. There's no cloud, no account and no internet: devices find each other on your local network, and everything goes straight from one to the other over an encrypted connection.

SHARE FROM ANYWHERE
Pick Zagel in any app's share sheet, tap a nearby device, and it's sent. Any file type, any size, several at once.

PAIR ONCE
Choose a nearby device and tap Add. Both screens show the same 4-digit code. Confirm it, and that device can send to you without asking from then on. Devices you haven't added always ask first.

RECEIVE YOUR WAY
Ask before accepting, or save automatically from your own devices. Photos and videos can go straight to your library, files go to Files → Zagel, and text lands on your clipboard. Links are never opened for you.

ALWAYS AT HAND
Add the Zagel control to Control Center, the Lock Screen or the Action button to start receiving in a tap.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Zagel has no servers, no analytics and no ads, and it collects no data. What you send never leaves your Wi-Fi.

Zagel is also available for Android on Google Play and for Mac on the Mac App Store. An iPhone receives while Zagel is open.
