Nothing is tracked. Ever.

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.
