Share files between devices over LAN with the help of this cross-platform application. #Share File #Transfer File #Network Transfer #Sharing #Send #Network
LANDrop is an open-source and cross-platform application that allows you to share files between your devices just as long as they're connected to the same local area network.
It comes with bespoke clients for Windows, macOS, Linux, as well as iOS and Android.
The main advantage of LANDrop over other file transfer solutions is the fact that it doesn't rely on your internet speed. The app uses your local network to transfer, hence, it's a lot faster, and arguably more convenient.
Another great advantage is the fact that it doesn't compress your images, music files, or videos. The app uses state-of-the-art cryptography technologies to ensure that your file transfers are as secure as possible. Last but not least, there's the issue of privacy. LANDrop does not collect, share, or store any of your personal data.
Even though it's not the most stylish app of this sort, LANDrop has a nice, user-friendly GUI. It smoothly integrates with your system's tray/status bar.
To send or receive files to and from other devices, you just have to select the device's name, type, as well as your local IP address (and port), and that's pretty much about it.
The app also provides you with the option of not sharing the aforementioned information by turning off the "Discoverable" option within the app. This option can be found in the Settings section, easily accessible from the app's tray/status bar menu.
LANDrop is a nice little app that's worth having around if you often need to transfer files between multiple devices on your local network. It's fast, it doesn't have a limit on the number of files you can send or receive, it's free, very beginner-friendly, open-source, and it works on all major OSes out there.
