LAN File Transfer

The LAN File Transfer Tool lets you quickly send files and text between phones, computers, and tablets. As long as two devices are on the same WiFi or hotspot, one device creates a room to get a 6-digit code, and the other joins by entering the code or scanning the QR code with its camera. Files travel directly between devices without passing through any server, keeping transfers both private and fast, with no cable, sign-up, or login required.

Key Features

• QR code or room code pairing: Creating a room generates a 6-digit code and a QR code, so the other device can join by typing the code or scanning it.
• Direct peer-to-peer transfer: Files move straight between the two devices instead of uploading to a server, protecting privacy and saving bandwidth.
• Text messaging: Besides files, you can send a short text, which is handy for links, verification codes, or quick notes.
• Multiple files at once: Select several files at a time or drag and drop them onto the page to transfer.
• Auto-download and batch download: The receiver can enable auto-download, or grab all files at once with batch download instead of saving them one by one.

Use Cases

• Move photos and videos from a phone to a computer without a cable or transfer app.
• Share documents between devices in an office or home on the same network.
• Send files to a colleague or friend without using third-party cloud drives or messaging apps.
• Distribute materials on the spot during meetings or classes to devices on the same LAN.

How to Use

1. Make sure both devices are connected to the same WiFi or hotspot.
2. On one device, tap "Create room"; a 6-digit code and QR code will appear.
3. On the other device, switch to "Join room" and enter the code, or scan the QR code with the camera.
4. Once connected, either side can drag in or select files and type text to send.
5. The receiver saves the files, or turns on auto-download / uses batch download to get everything at once.

Tips

Transfers rely on a direct LAN connection, so keep both devices on the same WiFi or hotspot and in the same network. Do not close the page until the files finish sending. When receiving several files, batch download is recommended, and avoid tapping Save repeatedly so the browser does not temporarily block saving.
