LocalSend is a free, open-source app that allows you to securely share files and messages with nearby devices over your local network without needing an internet connection.
LocalSend is a cross-platform app that enables secure communication between devices using a REST API and HTTPS encryption. Unlike other messaging apps that rely on external servers, LocalSend doesn't require an internet connection or third-party servers, making it a fast and reliable solution for local communication.
It is recommended to download the app either from an app store or from a package manager because the app does not have an auto-update.
Unofficial MSIX preview: you can try builds from the latest commits at localsend.ob-buff.dev . Stability is not guaranteed and all custom code tweaks are listed on that site.
In most cases, LocalSend should work out of the box. However, if you are having trouble sending or receiving files, you may need to configure your firewall to allow LocalSend to communicate over your local network.
