Droppp is a simple local file transfer app for iPhone and iPad that works over Wi-Fi and Personal Hotspot. Use Droppp when AirDrop is not available, cable transfer is inconvenient, or you do not want to upload files to the cloud. Connect both devices to the same Wi-Fi network, or connect the other device to your iPhone or iPad’s Personal Hotspot. Transfer files through a browser without installing any extra desktop program. Turn on the local file drop server in Droppp, then open the displayed address in a browser on another device. You can also scan the QR code or change the server port. Keep Droppp open with your device’s screen on during transfers. Drag and drop or choose photos, videos, documents, ZIP files, and more on the web page. Received files are saved locally inside Droppp and can be viewed, shared, deleted, or moved to other apps. Select multiple files and drag them to apps that support drag and drop. Folders make it easier to organize incoming files. Create named folders and nested folders, then drag files or folders where they belong. Share or delete folder contents in Droppp, and view or download them from the local web viewer. Access Droppp’s Files folder in Apple’s Files app and copy files between it and Droppp storage. You can also link folders from the Files app, including iCloud Drive folders. Changes to files in a linked folder apply to the original folder. View its files, upload new files, and download them through the web viewer too. Droppp works without accounts or login. Files are transferred directly between devices over your local connection, without requiring cloud upload. History Insights helps you review recent transfer activity. You can disable history recording in Settings when you do not need it.
