LocalSend is new, having its first GitHub commit in December 2022, but it already packs quite a few features like the ability to send not only files but also text, automatically display nearby devices, send to multiple recipients, detailed file transfer information, received files history, Quick Save (auto accept file transfers until this is turned off), rename incoming files, and more. The data is sent securely over HTTPS, and the TLS/SSL certificate is generated on the fly on each device. For communication in the local network, it makes use of its custom LocalSend Protocol and HTTPS encryption. The application doesn't use any third-party servers and doesn't require an Internet connection to work. The Flutter app runs on Linux, Microsoft Windows, macOS, Android / Android TV, iOS, and Fire TV / OS. LocalSend is a free and open source, cross-platform alternative to AirDrop for sending files securely over the local network.
