Features
Read full description

Privli sends files and clipboard directly between your devices — fully cross-platform — with no internet, no account, and no data collection. It's the nearby-sharing app that doesn't lock you into one ecosystem. Move a photo from one device to another, copy text on your laptop and paste it on your phone, send a video to a friend across the table — all over your local Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, never the cloud. WHY PRIVLI • Truly cross-platform — one app for all your devices, desktop and mobile. • Reaches phones that don't have Privli — send to many nearby phones through their built-in sharing, with nothing to install on their side. • Files and clipboard — text, images, photos, videos, documents, archives. No file-type limit. • No setup — no registration, no pairing, no sign-in. Open the app and share. • One-time purchase — no subscription, no ads, no upsells. PRIVACY IS THE FOUNDATION, NOT A FEATURE To guarantee your data stays yours, Privli is designed to be completely offline. This means: NO Internet connection is ever used for your transfers. NO data is ever uploaded to a cloud server. NO user accounts or sign-ups. NO analytics or anonymous tracking. Your files are transferred directly, peer-to-peer, between your devices. Nothing more. Logs stay on your device; you decide if you ever email them to us for support. SENDING TO A PHONE THAT DOESN'T HAVE PRIVLI Privli works with the built-in nearby-sharing found on many popular phones. To send to one, ask the other person to open their phone's nearby-sharing and set visibility to "Everyone" (on newer phones, "Everyone for 10 minutes") — their device will then appear in Privli. Sharing between two Privli devices needs no extra steps. Privli the app is a paid, closed-source product, funded by your purchase — never by collecting or selling your data.

About

App Blocker OffKit

Features
Read full description

OffKit helps you stop impulsive scrolling and use your phone intentionally. Block distracting apps and categories, then choose what it takes to regain access. Unlock with a QR code placed in another room, reach a daily step goal, or complete your Apple Watch Move or Exercise ring. That small real-world action interrupts the doomscrolling habit loop. Create focused scenarios for studying, work, evenings, or sleep. Choose flexible durations, protect changes with Face ID or Touch ID, and add a disable countdown when you want extra friction. OffKit uses Apple's Screen Time and HealthKit APIs. Your scenarios and activity data stay on your device and are never sold. Terms of Use: https://offkit.eu/terms
