LocalToolbox vs DropLink

Local Toolbox is a privacy-first, fully offline utility app that now includes 203 practical tools for daily life, work, local records, study, image tasks, PDF and media handling, and professional use. It brings measurement tools, timers, date and unit converters, text utilities, developer tools, finance and record tools, field and workplace helpers, image tools, PDF and file tools, media tools, and fun utilities into one app. Many small tools that would normally require a separate download, or an upload to a cloud website, are already here and run entirely on device. Everything runs locally on your device. No login, no internet required, no cloud sync, no content upload, and no ads, subscriptions, or in-app purchases getting in the way. Text from image, document scanning and auto redaction are all done on device by iOS itself, so your photos, PDFs and videos never need to be handed to an AI service. It is built for people who want practical tools without privacy trade-offs. V2.3 adds ten local tools: Resize to Target (exact pixels or file size), Convert Image Format (JPEG/PNG/HEIC), Document Scanner (auto edge detection and shadow cleanup), Text from Image (offline OCR with txt export), QR & Barcode Scan (and Wi-Fi QR creation), Auto Redact (card numbers, IBANs, emails, phone numbers, IPs and faces), Images to PDF, PDF Page Tools (merge, split, rotate, delete, export pages), File Hash Check (SHA-256/SHA-1/MD5/CRC32) and Compress Video (size limit, trim, extract audio).

Chat apps shrink your videos and cap file sizes. DropLink sends the original — any size — as a link. Pick a video, get a link instantly, and send it anywhere. The other person opens it in any browser and downloads the untouched original. No upload to wait for, no account, nothing for them to install. ----------------------------------------------------------- WHY IT'S FAST ----------------------------------------------------------- There's no upload step. The link is ready the moment you pick files, and the download streams straight from your device while DropLink is open. • Same Wi-Fi? It switches to a direct local connection — as fast as your router allows. • Different networks? It goes through our relay servers, closest one picked automatically. • Network hiccup? Downloads resume from where they stopped instead of starting over. ----------------------------------------------------------- ORIGINAL QUALITY, ANY SIZE ----------------------------------------------------------- • 4K videos, RAW photos, long recordings — sent byte-for-byte, never re-compressed • No file size limit and no storage quota • Download managers work too: multi-threaded and resumable ----------------------------------------------------------- NOTHING KEPT, NOTHING TO SIGN UP FOR ----------------------------------------------------------- • Files stay on your device. Our relay passes bytes through in memory and never writes them to disk. • Encrypted in transit with TLS • No account, no email, no phone number • No ads • Stop sharing and the link stops working ----------------------------------------------------------- GOOD TO KNOW ----------------------------------------------------------- Keep DropLink open until the download finishes — the files come straight from your device, so if the app is closed, the transfer pauses. DropLink shows live progress so you know when it's done. ----------------------------------------------------------- WHO CAN RECEIVE ----------------------------------------------------------- Anyone with a web browser — on a phone, tablet or computer. • Nothing to install, no account needed • Even a shared computer works — the receiver installs nothing ----------------------------------------------------------- SUPPORT ----------------------------------------------------------- Website: https://idroplink.com Privacy: https://idroplink.com/privacy.html Contact: zhushaolong@gmail.com Questions or a weird bug?
