Ulak vs Vupti

ULAK is an open-source local network file sharing app developed by Turkish engineers. No internet connection required, no cloud servers involved — all transfers happen directly between devices. SECURE TRANSFERS AES-256 encryption ensures your files and texts can only be opened on the target device. Setting a custom password is optional. INSTANT DISCOVERY ULAK devices on the same network appear automatically. No manual IP entry or pairing needed. EVERY FILE TYPE Send photos, videos, audio, PDFs, ZIPs, text and more. Easy file selection via gallery picker and file browser. SHARE VIA LINK The built-in HTTP server lets you share a file or text accessible from any browser on the same network. Share the link or copy it instantly. APPLE WATCH SUPPORT Get notified on your Apple Watch, approve or reject incoming transfers, and monitor service status — all from your wrist. CLIPBOARD SHARING Send any text or image from your clipboard to other ULAK devices with a single tap. NOTIFICATIONS Receive instant notifications when a file or text arrives. AUTO ACCEPT Automatically accept files without prompts on trusted networks. iPadOS READY Full support for all iPad models — landscape and portrait, Files app integration, and split-screen compatible. Open source under the MIT License.

Your photos go to the phone next to you. Nowhere else. Vupti sends photos, videos and files straight from your iPhone to a nearby iPhone. There's no account, no cloud and no server in between, so there's nothing for anyone to collect. That includes us. Private by design • No account, no sign-up, no email • Nothing is uploaded. Files go phone to phone over Wi-Fi, no internet needed • Encrypted end to end • Location is removed from photos and videos before they leave • No ads, no analytics, no tracking. Vupti collects no data at all • A phone you don't know has to ask before sending you anything Open Vupti on both phones and the other one shows up at the top. Flick a card up and it lands on their screen. Send a whole batch at once and save it all to Photos in one tap. Receiving is always free, and so is sending up to 100 MB at a time. Vupti Pro, a one-time purchase, lifts the limit. No subscription.
