Transfer files instantly between your iPhone, iPad, Mac, and other devices — no internet required, no cloud, no accounts. How it works Local Share automatically discovers nearby devices on your Wi-Fi network. Tap a device, pick your files, and they arrive in seconds. Everything stays on your local network. Why Local Share - No internet needed — works entirely over your local Wi-Fi - No accounts or sign-up — open the app and go - No file size limits — send photos, videos, documents, anything - Private by design — your files never touch a server Simple to use Open Local Share, see your nearby devices instantly, tap to send. The receiver gets a prompt to accept, chooses where to save, and opens the file right away. --- Requires both devices to be on the same Wi-Fi network By using this app, you agree to our Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
